The new Olympus E-p1 Pen is bragging about a feature that until now, no camera has mastered. The rumour is that Olympus might be the closest if not dead-on with this schizo-camera.
The Olympus Pen claims to have found the balance between a digital-SLR and a point-and-shoot device without sacrificing more features, quality or time of shooting. The camera features HD video recording and playback at only a $749 (USD) price tag.
"Not a compact. Not a SLR. It's a PEN... What will you create?"
