New features of Olympus E-PL3 Recently, features such as swivel LCD to be one point which is calculated by the serious photography enthusiast. The reason, the camera with this feature offers the flexibility of choice of high-angle shooting. This has made Olympus offers LCD tilt feature on the E-PL3. This feature allows the LCD screen rotated vertically. Previously, such features are found on the Sony NEX-5. Even though it can only be rotated vertically for 1350 only, the existence of this feature makes shooting done from the top or bottom is easy to do. No less important, matter to the axis of tilt LCD E-PL3 made of metal so it is quite strong and reliable. With Hyper Crystal LCD with a technology that is installed on the E-PL3 still use the standard resolution of 460 000 pixels.

Including the 14-42 mm f/3.5-5.6 lens kit is the best camera processor TruePic.  VI with dual core technology in the E-PL3 contained on this camera's ability to reduce noise in images. It should be recognized, with the sensor micro-four-third the size is greater than the sensor compact cameras but still smaller than APS-C sensor, noise arising from this camera is very low.
