Olympus-specific online community for UK and Ireland E-System users launches
Olympus UK and the Write Technology Ltd, the publisher of this site, Digital Photography Now, and Four Thirds User, have launched a new Olympus E-System DSLR online user group community. The Olympus UK E-System User Group provides a focal point for both Olympus UK and its E-System DSLR users.
The new 'e-group' site provides news and information from Olympus UK, as well as special offers and opportunities exclusively for registered e-group users. To set the ball rolling, at least fifty registered e-group users are set to receive a free BLM-1 lithium ion rechargeable battery, worth £69 and compatible with most of the Olympus E-System camera range.
There is also a fully-featured discussion forum, with camera model-specific user groups, plus a free photo gallery with advanced features, like photo rating and comments, plus the ability to show selected gallery photos in the discussion forum.
VIP events
If you are a UK-based E-System camera user, or you are thinking of purchasing an E-System DSLR camera, sign up now and you could earn yourself a free BLM-1 battery and be a founding member of a great new photographic community and resource. There are also two VIP events, both of which promise the attendance of none other than the famous photographer David Bailey, and exclusive places have been reserved at these events for registered members of the new e-group. For more details how to stake your claim for a place at one of these events, visit this e-group 'E'vents information page.
The new 'e-group' site is operated by the Write Technology, but sponsored entirely by Olympus UK and focussed specifically on UK and Ireland residents. The new site is regarded as a service to Olympus DSLR users, but it is also a marketing initiative to keep such users up-to-date with the latest promotions and events. The new site is a departure from the independent editorial-based formula that lies at the heart of DPNow and on Four Thirds User. That independence will not change.
