Live View HyperCrystal LCD
The E-510 features a big and bright 2.5-inch Live View LCD display with approximately 230,000 pixels includes HyperCrystal technology. Users have the freedom to choose how they compose their shots, using either the LCD or the optical viewfinder on the back of the camera. Users can easily compose their subjects live on the LCD before the shot is taken, by holding the E-510 away from the face and using the Live View LCD to compose, it's possible to shoot upward from a low angle, in close for detailed macro photos or a parade over a crowd of people.

10-megapixel Live MOS image sensor
The E-510 is loaded with a 10-megapixel sensor which will give photographers the flexibility to blow up their prints to the large sizes supported by many of today's printers, or crop the image to print only a part of the image that is important to them. The MOS image sensor delivers excellent dynamic range for accurate color fidelity, less noise and fine image details in the highlight and shadow areas.

Mechanical Image Stabilization
Unlike other digital SLR cameras in its class, the E-510 employs Mechanical Image Stabilization that compensates for camera movement, complementing the Digital Image Stabilization which compensates for a moving subject. Combined, they provide a powerful solution, ensuring blur-free photos even in all shooting situations with images taken with any of the more than 40 Zuiko ED digital-specific lenses.

Dust Reduction System
Olympus' Dust Reduction System with the exclusive Supersonic Wave Filter produces spot-free photos. The patented ultrasonic technology vibrates to remove dust and other particles from the front of the image sensor, and captures the debris on a special adhesive membrane every time you turn on the camera.

TruePic III image clarity
Enhanced TruePic III Image Processor produces crystal clear photos using all the pixel information for each image to provide the best digital images possible for every photo with accurate color, true-to-life flesh tones, brilliant blue skies and precise tonal representation in between.

Exemplary User Interface
While the E-510 includes a full range of manual control options to customize creativity, it also has 28 shooting modes designed to provide the ideal settings for a variety of shooting situations automatically. These include Digital Image Stabilization, Night Scene, Fireworks, Beach and Snow, and Candle Light to name a few, as well as an xD Panorama mode (for use with Olympus xD-Picture Cards).
