excels in that area, too.
As you’d expect, the E-10’s built-in flash
operates in a variety of modes. You can
choose from auto flash for low- and back-
light conditions, red-eye reducing flash,
fill-in (forced on) flash and flash off to take
advantage of natural light.
And going beyond what you’d expect
from a digital camera of this caliber, the
E-10’s flash is an exclusive scene-detecting
flash. So if your subject is standing off to one
side at dusk, the flash compensates and
makes sure the right amount of light is fired.
You can also attach our optional FL-40

Aside from its many exposure controls,
the E-10 SLR offers other ways to help you
use light to make beautiful pictures.
In-camera metering is fast and accurate
in a variety of difficult lighting situations.
Our digital ESP multi-pattern metering
measures light from multiple areas of the
image. Center-weighted metering concen-
trates on light in the center of the viewfinder.
And Spot metering concentrates on a much
smaller area (about 1.6%) in the center of
the viewfinder.
Of course, another way photographers
work with light is by generating it. The E-10
external flash to the E-10’s hot shoe. You’ll
increase your flash distance to more than 30
feet, and have greater control. When used with
the E-10, the FL-40 also works as a scene-
detecting flash. And for studio work, a PC
Sync lets you easily connect to studio strobes.
The E-10 SLR handles the most
difficult and diverse lighting
conditions with ease. For
instance, it faithfully captures
every nuance of Hollywood’s
magnificent Pantages Theatre.
