Olympus E-30 Mid-Range DSLR Given First Quick Groping [Olympus]
Gizmodo — ... and now the camera's had its first hands-on over at DPReview. And it seems ok: the team liked the fact that it had many of the features of the pro E-3—like the 2.7-inch 230,000-pixel viewscreen and 1/8000th seconds shutter speed—while being a little smaller and having those "art filters" for real-time image manipulation.

Maybe when reviews are posted, it will review that the camera is some sort of wunderkind.

Gatzet.com — ... -the E-30 sounds like it might be a really nice camera. It has the same extremely fast AF system as the E-3, which I increasingly appreciate. It also incorporates a flip-and-twist LCD, which makes Live View a lot more useful and which none of its big competitors offer. While the viewfinder isn’t as big as the E-3’s, it still sounds better than most of the others. It has a built-in electronic level, like the Nikon D3, DPreview’s review on Olympus E-30 writes : The E-30 is considerably larger than the E-520, both is width and height ...
