Olympus to intro 5.1 mp SLR next year?
|
Some
time back we reported that Olympus and Kodak would be working on joint
ventures in the future and that Olympus would be using Kodak sensors.
Today Kodak gave a seminar and revealed some details, it appears that
Olympus will announce a new digital SLR at PMA next year (Feb 2002) which
will be fitted out with a Kodak 4/3" 5.1 mp CCD (KAF-C5100E). More
interestingly it appears that this camera (or cameras) will have a lens
mount and a selection of up to 5 lenses (though the standard "kit"
will include a body and lens). Kodak also make mention that this camera
may also support Bluetooth (or via a kit) wireless transfer techology.
Thanks to my good friend Yamada Kumio for handing me this piece of news.
