EP3 ~Short and Fast: 17 filters with ONE shot...Filter Bracketing..Something New?1
by Chan Teng Heng July 16 2011
Something new in EP3...FILTER BRACKETING...we are familiar with bracketing; now you can take 12 filter shots and 6 picture mode with one press of the shutter button.
What is the use? Very useful if you are in a hurry and you are not sure which filter will give you the best image.
The following is straight from the EP3 camera, taken with 14-42mm MkII MSC microZuiko lens.
iEnhance:
Natural:
Pop Art:
Soft Focus:
Pale & Light:
Light Tone:
Grainy Tone: (differentiate from Monotone, lower down)
Pin-Hole:
Diorama:
Cross Process:
Gentle Sepis:
Dramatic Tone:
The following Picture Modes may also be taken with the ONE_SHOT bracketing:
iEnhance:
Vivid:(Differentiate from Pop ART filter)
Muted:
Portrait:
Monotone:(sometimes, Grainy Film Filter gives the better effect)
Natural:
The Filter Bracketing saves a lot of time when you are in a hurry, especially during holiday or business tours. However, there is something you need to consider:
If you use SD card in the EP3, you are better off using class 4(minimum, not too slow), but I used class 6 and class 10 SD cards, and there is no lag time. Very fast.
Try. You will enjoy this tiny innovation implemented in EP3. Even the E5 does not have this function. I hope Olympus will incorporate this in their future firmware upgrade. However, the E5 uses the Trupic V+, whereas the EP3 uses the Trupic VI.
