Will you help me ?

News

• The E500, a successor to the E300, has been launched.
• Looks like a more compact version of the E300, with a pentaprism instead of a porroprism.
• All other features seem the same.
  

Technical data and reference manuals

• The quick start guide can be downloaded here.
• The complete reference manual can be downloaded here.
  
• Olympus E300 complete specifications
• The CCD used in the E300 is the KAF-8300CE manufactured by Kodak.
• It has 5.4 x 5.4 micrometer pixels, with a total capacity of 25500 electrons per pixel.
  
• Total CCD noise is 16 electrons, which means that the dynamic range is 1600:1 - over 10 stops (64 dB).
• Warthog prepared a comparison table listing the current consumption of the Olympus 5060 compared to the Olympus E300. You will see that the E300 consumes less power than the C5060.

Reviews and previews

• See Cnet's review of the E300. The E300 got a score of 7.3 out of 10.
  
• See this interesting and detailed review in Spanish of the Olympus E300.
  
• Bill Keicher performed a test to measure the dynamic range of the E300. His words "I have created an original test report on the measurement of E-300 dynamic range and transfer function.  I have plotted performance as a funcion of ISO. Note the E-300 dynamic range between ISO 400 and ISO 1600 and how it compares to the 48 dB dynamic range of a JPEG or TIFF image."

• First test pictures taken with the E-300 published by a Japanese website. Available in two versions.
  Version 1: Translated by Babelfish. No full size pictures.
  Version 2: Original - full size pictures available.

RAW file format

• Olympus has released a codec for Windows Vista. The codec is a piece of software running under Windows Vista with which Vista can import and display RAW images of all Olympus DSLRs.
• Give a try to Olympus Studio, the software Olympus offers for processing RAW files.
  Comment by Jens Birch: It has some very nice features designed to effectively sift through large amounts of images. It also has a better .ORF conversion engine than any other program I am aware of. It can do most of the basic photo editing you need. However, it is quite slow in some of its tasks.
• Adobe Photoshop CS is not capable of converting E300 RAW files. You will need CS2 and the Camera RAW 3.1 plugin. But you can also buy the cheaper Adobe Elements 3, which also supports the plugin.
• There is also the Photoshop plugin from Olympus, which allows to import RAW images into Photoshop starting from version 6.0.
• Give a try to Silkypix's Developer Studio RAW converter. Not free, but it is getting very good feedback from those who are using it. It seems to be THE raw converter with virtually any control you can imagine. Some feedback from Jerry Beggs:
• "I have tried the Silkypics raw converter - it is the best I've found and importantly, it runs on old pc's; I use Windows ME on a PIII 800 processor with 256mb RAM.  It works perfectly and is fast enough.  Many of the new RAW convertors like Pixmantecs Rawshooter Essentials and Phase One's Capture will not run on less than 500mb RAM and Windows XP. "
  
• Another RAW converter is Phase One's Capture One LE which allows saving the file as a 16-bit TIF. This allows saving the full range and tuning a high contrast image in CS preserving detail at both ends of the image.
• The E300 generates 13.4 MB RAW files.
  
• To convert E300 RAW files to JPEG either use the Camedia software which came with the camera or the much better Adobe Photoshop converter.
  

 

Questions ? Comments ? Put them in the Olympus E300 user group

Memory cards

• Find here the detailed results of a survey about write speeds with different memory cards. Here are the conclusions:
• The Olympus E300 is currently the digital camera with the highest card write speeds. The camera reaches over 9MB/s sustained with a Sandisk Ultra III Extreme card - no other digital camera, not even the fastest DLSRs, comes even close.
• The limiting factor here is not the camera. Only the fastest memory cards allow access to the camera's full potential.

• See here for CompactFlash and Microdrive compatible with the Olympus E300. This table shows which CF card types have been tested for compatibility with the E300.
  Note: of course there are lots of CF card brands and types which are compatible with the E300 and are not listed there.
  

• The max. writing speed of the E300 is over 9 MByte/s.
  
• For the highest performance only use the fastest memory cards currently available (80x). See the test results for details about write speeds with different memory cards.
• If you don't shoot a lot of RAWs, consider getting a cheaper memory card. The newer "medium range" CF cards achieve 4-5 MB/s, which is very acceptable for most uses.
  

Firmware

• November 20th: Firmware v1.5 for the E300 is available.
• Improved the focusing accuracy when using the EC-20 Teleconverter.
  
• June 22nd, 2006: Olympus releases firmware v1.4 for the E300.
• Improved exposure precision when taking pictures in the macro mode using SPOT metering.
  
• July 19th, 2005: Olympus has released firmware 1.3. The new firmware incorporates the following changes:
• It is now possible to set the interval between pressing a button and when the control dial can be operated.
• Stability of Digital ESP and Center weighted average metering has been improved.
• The (camera) start up process has been changed to support interchangeable lenses to be released in the future.
• Two scene modes, Underwater Macro and Underwater Wide, have been added.
  * When taking pictures underwater, the optional underwater housing must be attached.
• Some comments on Firmware 1.3:
• I took my new E-300 firmware out for a walk today. Exposures/metering certainly seemed very good, but what I think I noticed were much truer greens, maybe from improved white balance. My lawn seemed more saturated and less on the magenta side, something that has irritated me. Had absolutely no problem downloading and installing.
• Just upgraded firmware to V1.3. Did some photo shots in the home (10:15pm in Singapore) and found the results much better.
• Improved ESP metering most important update. Button time outs and under-water modes added.
  
• Mar. 28th, 2005: Olympus has released firmware 1.2. The new firmware incorporates the following changes:
• New high speed CompactFlash cards are supported. Operation with the following card(s) has been verified: Extreme III (Sandisk)
• The following functions have been added to enhance camera versatility.
  
• 1:SHADING COMP
• 2:ANTI-SHOCK
• 3:RELEASE PRIORITY S
• 4:RELEASE PRIORITY C
• The battery check indicator for use with the HLD-3 Power battery holder has been improved.
  
• The previous firmware update (v1.1) incoporated the following changes:
• [AUTO] of the white balance setting has been improved to better accommodate subjects containing yellows.
• Highlighted parts appeared pink when the color space was set to [Adobe RGB] and [CUSTOM WB] was set to a low color temperature. This situation has been improved.
• Battery consumption during sleep mode has been improved.
  
• Check here to see if firmware updates for the E300 are available.
  
• To install the firmware follow the procedure described at the Olympus Japan page.

Chromatic aberrations / Purple fringing

• To remove chromatic aberrations you can process the RAW image with the Adobe Photohop RAW plugin.
  
• To remove chromatic aberrations with an image editor (desaturation of the magentas):
• It is very simple to remove chromatic aberrations from an image. Simply use a photo editor and set the saturation level of magenta (also green where this makes sense) to the minimum. In some images you might have to set the saturation level of red to the minimum. It might also make sense to limit the processing to the affected area (i.e. select the affected image area and only process that).

Polariser filter and other filters

• A polariser filter helps to obtain deep blue skies and to remove unwanted reflections. Consider the following example (both images taken with the polariser filter):

 

Perhentian island image

Same image with polariser rotated by 90 degrees

• See the difference ? In the picture to the right, the polariser filter substantially reduced the amount of light reflected by the water surface making the sea ground more visible and made the sky more dark.
• Polariser filters are also useful when the lower part of the image is dark and the top (the sky) too bright.
• Have a look at Darwin Wigget's page on filters for further information on polariser, blue-yellow polariser, graduated neutral density and other filters
• See also Jeremy McCreary's page on filters

Accessories

• The ME-1 eyecup magnifier enlarges the view by 20%. The eyecup incorporates two lenses and measures 40 x 30 x 12mm.
  
• Jan Steinman (Jan at Bytesmiths dot com) adapted an OM-System Varimagni finder to the E300. Here is how he did it:
• put a 1/4th inch carbide router bit in the drill press.
• removed the two small screws to take the coupling mechanism off the Varimagni Finder.
• clamped the coupling mechanism into the cross vise, using small bits of hard rubber to square it.
• adjusted the cross vise while the bit was spinning to remove about 1/2mm from either side of the coupling mechanism
• re-attached the mechanism to the Varimagni Finder
• NOTE: the Varimagni Finder will no longer work properly with OM cameras after this mod!
  
• The FP-1 Power Flash grip is designed for use with the FL-50 high-voltage pack and can be used in combination with the flash unit's built-in power supply to provide fast flash charging for an extended number of shots. The head is can be rotated by 180° for increased versatility.
• The HLD-3 battery holder almost doubles the number the number of shots you can take with the E300. Featuring a shutter release button at its base for easy vertical shooting, a remote socket for use with the RM-CB1 Cable Release, and a standard tripod socket.
• There is also a BCM-1 fast battery charger - recharges the BLM-1 battery in two hours instead of five.
• The official system chart from Olympus Europe showing all accessories for the E300
  
• Olympus Digital Accessories compatibility page: lists all accessories and tells you if they are compatible with the E300.

BLM-1 battery and cheaper 3rd party alternatives

• According to Federico del Vall 3rd party BLM-1 batteries fail in low temperatures:
  
  Been recently to Ushuaia - (Patagonia, Argentina) and found Oly's BLM-1's made sense.
  I have three different compatible batteries and tree Olympus, two for each cam.
  BLM-1's are rated at -10 °C worst case, so I made no worries. But at this temperature, quite common around Ushuaia these days, while a BLM-1 would last one to two of my photoshooting days at 20°C, lasted no more than an hour or so. Compatibles failed after no more than 10 minutes.
  So set to the task of heating the batteries to ~30° for half an hour, and found the BLM-1 could still be used once more for one hour, and the compatibles too, but for other 10 minutes or so. But then none.
  At these temperatures (-10-0 °C) Oly's BLM-1's are worth their price. On the other hand, in Salta, (north Argentina) where temperature is nice troughout the year, both types endured quite the same.
  
  
• Warthog did his own comparison test of  original Olympus BLM-1 batteries and 3rd party ones (page is in Finnish!):
• I tested this week my original Olympus batteries (3 pieces, two of them 2,5 years, one is 9 months old) and two replacement batteries (2 years old). I used 15 Ohm resistor, pictures taken every minute with my E-300 and Canon TC-80N3 timer remote controller. I tried QuickTime to record my measurements, but that timer is more practical.
  
  Original batteries are expensive, but very good. Replacement batteries are cheap and good....
  Test results of replacement batteries
  Test results of Olympus batteries & evaluation of both batteries
  
  
• See this page which contains an overview of currently available BLM-1 battery clones: Olympus BLM-1 (original), PS-BLM1 (7DayShop.com), WT-BLM1 (SterlingTek.com), Energizer OM-1, Hahnel HL-M1, UNiROSS VB104295, WinTop PS-BLM1 and e-Film (Delkin) BLM1. The author rates the batteries according to construction, capacity, (low voltage) protection and cost. It appears that not all 3rd party alternatives are created equal.
  
• Test added which shows which capacity the original Olympus BLM-1 battery and cheap 3rd party alternatives have. With the batteries I had (one original and two 3rd party ones) I measured the following:
• Original Olympus battery:   1299 mAh
  
• 3rd party battery 1:   1077 mAh
  
• 3rd party battery 2:   744 mAh
• This is OK, since the Olympus original BLM-1 battery costs 17 times more than the 3rd party alternatives I bought.
• The complete test results are available here.
  

• The original BLM-1 battery from Olympus is rated at 7.2 Volt and 1500 mAh. The alternatives have voltages of 7.2 or 7.4 Volt and capacities of 1300 or 1500 mAh.
• The voltage difference is no problem:
  
• The 7.2 Volt which Olympus officially quotes varies in reality between 6.7 Volt (discharged battery) and 7.7 Volt (fully charged battery). These are voltages measured under a pretty heavy load of over 1 Ampere (battery loaded with a 6.8 Ohm resistor).
  
• With no load the measured voltages become 7.37 Volt in a discharged state (emtpy battery screen showing) and 8.2 Volt (battery fully charged).
  => In other words, it's highly irrelevant if the battery is rated at 7.2 or 7.4 Volt - the camera can withstand 7.7 Volts without problems.
• The capacity difference is also something not to worry about. There is no big difference between 1500 and 1300 mAh (we are talking of a 10% difference), but the 3rd party battery costs a fraction of the original one.
• Personally I bought two 3rd party BLM-1 batteries in August 2004 from a Hong Kong eBay seller.
  
• Price per battery was US $ 5.49 and the total cost including shipping was US $17.
  
• The batteries arrived in 10 days to my home in Germany.
  
• I tested one of these cheap "counterfeit" batteries. It lasted for over 600 shots (SHQ, all with the LCD on, about 10% with flash) and still had juice left when I got tired and interrupted the test. It just wouldn't die.
  
  
• Vidpro fast battery charger (this has been reported by Rod in the Olympus E510 users group):
  
  My results are the Oly charger took around 5 hours to get to a full charge and the Vidpro about half that (which is what they advertise). BUT, it could be the second battery I charged on the Vidpro didn't need that much charging - what I did wasn't under very controlled conditions re residual charge before recharging.
  The Vidpro (US $30) charger base is a little larger than the Oly, and also has an AC to DC module (a little smaller than the Oly unit itself) that plugs into the AC wall socket whereas the Oly unit accepts AC directly with the supplied AC cord. Both the Oly & Vidpro accept 100v-240v, but the big difference I like is that the Vidpro has a 12v DC (vehicle, etc.) adapter allowing the batteries to be charged in the field.

Infrared photography with the Olympus E300

• under construction

• The site Infrared photography with your digital camera contains interesting information about infrared photography with Olympus cameras and an overview of infrared filters with their spectral characteristics.
• These sites contain useful information about infrared photography with digital cameras:
• Echeng.com: Digital infrared photography - site devoted to digital infrared photography with image galleries, information about filters and equipment and links.
• Wrotniak's Infrared Photography page - excellent information resource devoted to infrared photography with Olympus cameras. Information about infrared filters, exposure settings, focus, post-processing, sample images and links.
• Also see the Infrared photography page of the Apogee magazine: this is an interesting general introduction to infrared photography with digital cameras.

Lenses

• Wide angle and Fisheye

• Standard zooms

• Superzooms

• Telephoto zooms

• Prime lenses (fixed focal length)

• Extension tubes, teleconverters and adapters

• Photozone.de have detailed and accurate reviews of four thirds lenses.

• Firmware updates for Olympus Four Thirds and the Leica D Summilux lenses are available on this page.
  
• How good are the kit lenses? John Foster has done an interesting review comparing the Zuiko 14-42, 14-45 and 14-54 lenses. The review was done with the 10MP Olympus E400 DSLR and shows better results with the pro Zuiko 14-54 lens.
• Here are two tests of the Zuiko Digital 7-14 mm F4 lens, one performed by Andrzej Wrotniak and one by John Foster. The one by Andrzej Wrotniak is a bit more scientific, with physics formulas and resolution charts, while the one of John Foster is more from a user perspective and contains many sample images.

• Here is a resolution test for the 14-45 and 40-150 kit lenses and a comparison to the lens of the Olympus 8080. For the test I used images supplied as RAW by Moshe Ronen and a test target developed by Jens Birch:

• The test pattern consists of sets of five squares with horizontal, vertical and diagonal lines. Each square (1..5) has lines a different spatial resolutions, where 1 is the lowest and 5 the highest resolution.
• In the test I check in which squares the lines are still visible individually (beyond the resolution limit the lines start to merge).

• The 14-45 lens is sharper than the 40-150 lens as one would have expected. Interestingly the lens of the 8080 is even sharper (the videozona.ru review also reaches the same conclusion).  
• To see how the lens of the kit lens of the E300 compares other DLSRs see the following pages of the videozona.ru review:
• E300 vs Canon 10D (pages in Russian, but you just have a look a the images)
• E300 vs Canon 300D (pages in Russian, but you just have a look a the images)

External flash

• June 17th, 2006: Metz has started offering an inexpensive flash with high speed synchronization.
• Thanks to Jens Holm for reporting that Metz created an adapter with which you can use Metz flashes with the E300. Here is the email of the Metz technical support:
  
  Dear Ladies & Gentlemen
  from now on we are able to provide a NEW version M4 of the adapter
  SCA3202 which supported the electronic of a Olympus E300 in addition.
  Former adapters of version M to M3 can be up-dated to M4. Other hints you can read in the file attached.
  
  Best regards
  M e t z - W e r k e GmbH & Co KG
  Technical Support
  
  (please note: the attached file is in the Files section of the Olympus E300 users group)
  
  
• Apr. 5th, 2005:
  
• The Metz flash units doesn't work as of April 05,  but Metz is collecting User information and seems to be in the progress of making a new adapter (the old SCA3202 adapter can't be used with the E300).
  
• The FL40 from Olympus doesn't work either.  FL20 does however.
  
  
• The Olympus E300 has a standard flash hotshoe and can take all external flashes.
• Try out the Metz flash units - cheap and reliable. Alternatively try the FL-36 or other Olympus flash units.
  
• See here for how to measure the trigger voltage of your flash.
• See Jeremy McCreary'page on external flash for Camedia cameras.

Controlling the Olympus E300 with a computer

• Try these software packages
• Pine Tree Camera Controller works with the 5050 (and possibly also with the E300). Follow these steps:
  
• Open the card door on the camera
• turn on (for instance in P mode)
• press the OK/Menu button and the Monitor button simultaneously (not the Quick View button) for a few seconds,
  
• a menu pops up on the LCD screen - put camera in to control mode.
  
• Close Media door, plug in USB cable and fire up the software (the software won't work if the camera is not in control mode).
  
• Cam2Com: see this information.
 

Underwater Photography

• Olympus will release in June 2005 the PT-E01 underwater housing for the E300. Quoting from their site:
• "The PT-E01 underwater case has been specially customised for Olympus E-300 and is waterproof up to a water pressure equivalent to a depth of 60 metres. With its durable, high quality polycarbonate construction, it protects the camera from water, while also cushioning it from knocks and bumps on land.
  
  The TTL flash connector allows optional use of the Olympus FL-20 & FL-36 TTL flash with the PFL-01 & PFL-E01 flash housing. Three interchangeable lens ports allow the optional use of 14-45mm, 11-22 or 14-54mm and the 50mm Macro lens."
  
  
• Ikelite make an underwater housing for the Olympus E300. See their page with pictures and technical details. Also have a look at their strobe page - their DS-50 and DS-125 units can be used with the E300.
  
• The site Digideep.com is an online directory for digital underwater photography.
• Interesting forum for underwater photography: DigitalDiver.net

Data recovery

• Convar's PC Inspector Smart Recovery tool now supports JPEG, TIFF and RAW. FREEWARE - highly recommended.
  
• Jpegdump, by Kurt Stege, is a free tool to recover deleted images from a memory card. Recommended, alough it involves more work an e tool of Convar.
  
• These software tools are not free, so since Convar's software is available for free, there is no real need to use them:
  
• Check this site: Digital image recovery
Christian Grau has some software tools to fix damaged memory cards. The software used to be free, now costs $39.
• Datarescue also has a software tool (Photorescue) for repairing damaged memory cards, although it's not free.
• Photorecovery is another tool. Price is $39.95.

Noise reduction

• In addition to the E300's inbuilt noise reduction, you can post-process the images with NeatImage. This software package produces surprisingly good results.
• Here there is a comparison of different noise reduction software tools.

Exposure information data (EXIF)

• The picture files of the Olympus E300 contain the complete exposure information (aperture, exposure time, focal leng, white balance etc.).
• To read this data you can use these software tools:
• ExifReader, by Ryuuji Yoshimoto. Haven't tried the software myself, but it looks interesting. Freeware.
• Exif Image Viewer, by Michal Kowalski. This is the one I'm using. Quoting from his homepage:

"EXIF viewer is a simple image viewer application for photos taken with digital cameras. It's capable of reading EXIF information embedded in photos as well as little thumbnail. Because small thumbnail is already present in most photos displaying it is really fast.
EXIF viewer can also provide detailed information about photos (shutter speed, aperture, etc.) and conveniently list them for comparison purposes.
EXIF viewer also displays image histogram. It also features copying/moving and deleting of selected photos. Single photograph can be displayed in separate window or in a full screen mode."
• Exifer, by Friedemann Schmidt. I'm using this one too. It can rewrite EXIF data to images which lost it due to processing with a software package which doesn't support EXIF. Quoting from his site:

"Exifer is a nearly free software (you only should send me a postcard if you're using Exifer frequently) with which you can manage the metadata (EXIF/IPTC) of pictures taken by digital cameras. Because many image processing software destroys this metadata when saving such files, the idea was to create a backup of the metadata before editing it in any software, and then, after that to restore it back into the processed file. With Exifer you can do this very easily. "

Linux and e E300

• Below are the steps necessary to connect the E300 to a linux computer:

 

here are the steps (I'm on Suse 9.0 [1]): 1. boot Suse (optionally do $ sudo tail -f /var/log/messages ) 2. connect: 0. * use external power supply * "SETUP" -> "USB" must be set to "PC" (not "PRINT") * set playback mode on cam * make sure camera is turned off 1. connect with USB cable 2. turn camera on 3. watch: * drive icon appears on desktop: sda1 (rightclick -> properties: device /dev/sda1 mounted at /media/sda1) (clicking on it would mount the cam and open it in Konqueror "Icon View" => convenient thumbnail previews) (watch tail -f for USB stuff) ... or just wait a moment 4. get the pics: (as user:) $ mount | grep media $ mount /media/sda1 $ mount | grep media /dev/sda1 on /media/sda1 type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,sync,user=tobi) $ cd /media/sda1/dcim/100olymp/ $ cp -i ./* ~/data/move_to_cd/E300_unchanged/ $ mv -i ./* ~/data/pics/E300_changed/2004/01/10/ $ ls $ cd $ umount /media/sda1 $ mount | grep media $

 
• Brian Miller created a page about using a Olympus C-5050Zoom Digital Camera with Linux. Tons of detailed information on how to interface a 5050 with Linux. This information probably also holds for a E300.
• The page Using the Olympus Camedia C-3040 Zoom Digital Camera with Linux and USB by Micheal Schubart contains a description on how to download photos from an Olympus 3040 to a computer running Linux with USB. The procedure described there should also apply to an Olympus E300.
