For a top notch photographic experience for your dad, have a closer look at the Olympus Pen EP-3 digital camera.

Although a quite compact camera, the Olympus EP-3 uses the four thirds system, which gives it the benefits that a much larger sensor (compared with compact cameras) and interchangeable lenses all can bring to the party.

A larger sensor means better picture quality and enlargements, and better performance in low light situations, such as you might typically encounter within a home or restaurant shooting situation – very common social uses for cameras today.

With a touch screen on the rear offering the ability to touch-to-focus-and-shoot, this is truly one of the easiest to use cameras around, but despite the ease of use, provides images or the highest quality.

And being made by Olympus, the build and lens quality have an impeccable heritage that is carried through into this camera and the available lens choices.

This is a camera that, although highly regarded by professionals, can be easily used by those with little to no photographic experience.
