The E-450 is smaller enough to be carried into the pocket of your purse or jacket and along with that the 13.4 lb weight is ideal to carry in your hands whole day. The 2.7 inch HyperCrystal II technology based LCD delivers perfect view of the controls for your picture and this camera is also intelligent enough to manage the controls by itself as well. The details of the features this camera carries have been given below so let’s have a look.

Features:

  1. This camera carries three art filters which provide some fantastic artistic controls over the image. With this camera in hands you can enjoy the freedom of Autofocus live view and the dramatic effects of the pop art.

  4. The 10MP Live-MOS image sensor gives you amazingly colorful and clear images thus stores you memories in a very effective way.
  5. The live view LCD enables the photographers to hold the camera away from their faces and at the angles which they might never have experienced before.
