The State of the Art column in Business Day on Thursday, about the Sony A300 digital camera, attributed an erroneous distinction to one of its features. The camera’s ability to display an uninterrupted preview of an image on the back-panel screen because of a second image sensor is a refined version of a system that appeared in the Olympus E-330 in 2006; it is not a “technical breakthrough.” Link

    Oh, is *that* how they’re doing it.

    My E-10, manufactured in 2000, does it simply because there’s no *mirror* to get in the way.

    And it’s still f2.0 wide open, even with a beam-splitter in the way.
