  • Середняк беззеркальной линейки Olympus вызывает немного смешанные чувства. С одной стороны, ценовой разрыв с предшественником слишком существенен, чтобы не обращать на него внимания, при том, что идеологически (да и внешне) камеры очень близки. Есть и ост...

  • Olympus продолжила традиции и представила пару добротных беззеркальных компактов серии PEN. Модель за индексом E-PL5 на старте продаж стоит дороже своей предшественницы, а конкуренция с Sony становится более трудной. В то...

  • Olympus PEN E-PL5 стала ощутимо дороже предка, но при этом из существенных изменений можно отметить только сенсорный дисплей, а также более скоростную серийную съёмку и большую длительность серий. Остальные нововведения, а именно повышение уровня чувств...

  • Не буду скрывать, камера Olympus PEN Lite мне, безусловно, очень понравилась, но симпатична она не только из-за элегантного корпуса, но и благодаря богатой функциональности, отличному качеству снимков. Все параметры можно контролировать, пусть и не так оп...

  • Abstract:  Det finns få saker som öppnar sinnet lika bra som musik och fina bilder. Båda kräver en helhjärtad insats men ger dig många gånger insatsen tillbaka. Fotografiet är ett särskilt starkt medium, inte bara för att det kan bevara ögonblick på samma sätt s...

  • Vi kan gå rett på sak: Olympus E-PL5 er et kamera som gir deg mye for pengene og som har mange nyttige funksjoner. Faktisk er kameraet svært likt Olympus' toppmodell OM-D E-M5 , som er et par hakk dyrere. Bildebrikken er helt lik og ikke overraskende er...
