Olympus E-30 Introduction Manual

Page of 1
Because life is full of ideas.
Photographers who travel widely and have 
a lively interest in the world of people and 
places need the right tools to transform their 
creative ideas into visual realities. Because 
photography is much more than simple 
snap shots. Photography is creative expres-
sion. Creative photography means the ability 
to capture and visualise the special aspects 
of apparently normal subjects. The E-30 
from Olympus is the camera designed 
and constructed specifi cally to satisfy the 
demands of the art of photography. 
Olympus can look back on decades of 
experience in the construction of high-quality 
compact and SLR cameras. Photographers 
appreciate Olympus cameras not only for 
their compact design and their features, but 
also for their intuitive control functions. 
When you fi rst hold the E-30, you will soon 
see that intuition and technology work hand 
in hand to leave you much more scope 
for focusing on your own photographic style. 
This is because the E-30 combines the 
sophisticated features of a professional 
D-SLR camera with easy and intuitive hand-
ling, while simultaneously providing photog-
raphers with a multitude of opportunities for 
creative expression.
As soon as you start shooting, you can 
process your images conveniently with a 
selection of image-processing programmes 
to realise your own creative ideas. The 
E-30 provides you with opportunities to 
transform the ordinary into the extraordinary 
and to discover a personal creative style 
that makes your images unmistakable.
