You demand amazing images. The E-520 delivers.
Brighter, detail-rich photos.
When you select Gradation Auto, Shadow Adjustment
Technology captures detail in bright areas of a frame and brings
out details hidden in shadow. You’ll get images — especially faces
and backgrounds — with well-balanced brightness.
Capture spectacular color.
The E-520 uses an advanced 10-megapixel Live MOS Sensor
with wider dynamic range for natural color reproduction. Our
TruePic
™
III image processor gives photos true-to-life color
with exceptionally fine detail and minimal noise even at high
ISO settings.
Take dust out of the picture.
Once dust gets on the image sensor, it shows up in the same
spot on every picture. Our revolutionary, proven Dust Reduction
System features a Supersonic Wave Filter
™
(SSWF) located in
front of the image sensor that vibrates an astounding 30,000
times per second. Dust is shaken off so you’ll always get spot-
free photos.

No wires mean more creativity.
The E-520’s built-in flash uses a commander function for wireless flash
operation with the FL-36R or FL-50R. Through the Super Control Panel,
the camera can run up to three groups of flashes and execute a wide range
of creative lighting set-ups.
