Olympus E5 Tests Home Page
I bought the E5 on 8th November and have carried out a few tests to see how it fairs. I have been pleased with the results and would like to share some of the images with you.
These tests are NOT lab tests but simply to try the camera out with different lenses in a very practical way.
All the latest images (See recent Images) are with the E5 camera. I have stopped adding these to this section.

Just when I got the hang of the surf board, they now expect me to swim. Four times round the pool with a rest after each circuit. If I am getting wet, I shall make sure everyone else does too.3 January 2011. Molly's 3rd session. Copyright Peter Drury 2011
Well, this is not too bad but I wish I was on dry land.3 January 2011. Molly's 3rd session. Copyright Peter Drury 2011
Now comes the balancing act. They tell me it is to exercise my muscles but I am not so sure that I like this game.3 January 2011. Molly's 3rd session. Copyright Peter Drury 2011
Oops, so that is what the harness is for. I guess I shall have to stand.3 January 2011. Molly's 3rd session. Copyright Peter Drury 2011
Well, if I cannot lie down I can at least sit - can't I?3 January 2011. Molly's 3rd session. Copyright Peter Drury 2011
She knows she should stand but laying down on the board is so much easier......3 January 2011. Molly's 3rd session. Copyright Peter Drury 2011
Before the hydro-therapy, a shower is the first requirement. Water is one thing that Molly hates!Mandarin Duck at Keydell. Copyright Peter Drury 2011
