The built-in flash incorporates a commander function for use in wireless control of optional external flashes (FL-50R and/or FL-36R). All flash operations, including activation or deactivation of up to 3 flash groups and adjustment of the flash output intensity can be controlled from the E-30, making possible high-quality shooting with full use of advanced lighting capabilities.
Offering a 98% field of view and a 1.02x magnification*, the E-30 provides a large, clear view of your subject. Also, all lenses are surface-coated to ensure bright viewfinder image and offer high-quality and natural look.
* At -1 m-1, 50mm lens, infinity.
The built-in dual axis sensor detects the levels in roll and pitch. The level gauge is indicated in the viewfinder, on the Control panel, Rear LCD monitor.

The Supersonic Wave Filter (SSWF) installed in front of the image sensor vibrates at an ultrahigh speed of more than 30,000 times a second to blast the dust away from the sensor. The tremendous power of the supersonic waves removes dust that cannot be removed merely by shaking the image sensor and even removes dust that is attached by intermolecular force and cannot be removed by discharging static electricity. The Dust Reduction System is activated automatically when the camera is turned on and when Live View is activated.
The E-30 is provided with a dual slot that accepts a CompactFlash (CF Type I, II) or a Microdrive card and an xD-Picture Card. Data can be copied between different media and a second card can be used to backup the main card used for recording.
The E-620 (camera body) acquired the "Color Universal Design Certification" by using pictographs and graphic colors in the LCD that were designed to be easy to view regardless of individual differences in perceived color.
* Color Universal Design Certification is a third party certification, provided by the Incorporated NPO Color Universal Design Institute (CUDO), which certifies that the Color Universal Design standards have been achieved.
Shadow adjustment technology (Automatic Tone Gradation) decreases white outs and black outs. It can simultaneously decrease white outs in light areas, while also increasing light to dark areas. Compensation effects can be monitored in LiveView while shooting.
The histogram display shows the recorded image's luminance information, while the highlight display shows the over-exposed areas and the shadow display shows the under-exposed areas. In addition, the light box display allows you to compare two magnified images side by side.
