Primed for any assignment and satisfying the most stringent demands for professional Digital Single Lens Reflex photography, the long-awaited Olympus E3 Digital SLR is finally here. To celebrate the occasion, Olympus has two special offers for early purchasers of its new flagship model. As a thank you to its many loyal D-SLR customers, Olympus is offering all current E-System camera owners a free HLD-4 power grip with the purchase of the new Olympus E3. The HLD-4 power grip extends battery life so there’s no need to worry about assignments going into overtime. It also features a second shutter release to facilitate ease of use while working in portrait format.

The Consumer Electronics Show, better known as CES, has been held annually for over 40 years now. The first CES took place in New York City in 1967 featuring 200 exhibitors and 17,500 visitors. Since that time, the total show has increased by a factor 10. This year's CES show will again take place in Las Vegas, as usual, where visitors are welcomed from January 7 to January 10. The CES event appears to become more important every year. It is the first major world event where more than 2,200 CEA (Consumer Electronics Association) members are able to display their involvement in relation to development, manufacturing, distribution and integration of consumer electronic products such as audio, photo, video, mobile communication, and accessories. The CES 2010 starts off a brand-new year, offering a peek of what we can expect in the upcoming season regarding new products and services.
