Digital camera maker Olympus has formally introduced its new E-P1 “Pen” camera, which the company is touting as the world’s smallest 12.3 megapixel camera with an interchangeable lens system—that’s right, the E-P1 will handle Micro Four-Thirds lenses…but the camera isn’t really a DSLR. And it touts a three-inch LCD display, shoots high definition video, and is barely bigger than a standard point-and-shoot camera. Olympus is hoping the E-P1 offers something for everyone: the ease-of-use of a traditional point and shoot, the spontaneity of a digital camcorder, and the image quality of a DSLR.
