Olympus camera has “in camera art filters”
Author: JamiePhotoshop what??? The new Olympus e-620 digital SLR has in camera art filers that allow special effects in the camera!
From the Olympus Website:
ADD STYLE TO YOUR PHOTOGRAPHY WITH SIX ART FILTERS.
From the bright colors of Pop Art to the gritty black and white of Grainy Film, the six in-camera art filters transform your photography into works of art. Pop Art super-saturates colors, creating brighter, more vivid photographs. Soft Focus creates a dreamlike quality giving photographs a fantasy feel. Pale and Light Color brings soft, flat light and pastel coloring to photographs. Grainy Film produces a gritty high-contrast black-and-white film look. Light Tone brightens the image and its darker areas, providing more detail. Pin Hole darkens the outer edges of a photograph, therefore enhancing the subject in the center and bringing the photograph to life.
I haven’t had the opportunity to test out this camera, but it sounds like an exciting way to incorporate special effects without the use of computer programs.
Estimated Retail price with a 14-42mm lens is $699
