Fancy features on new Olympus E-30 digital SLR ?

Olympus has released information on its new SLR offering, the E-30, which promises to deliver to the new generation of visually acute consumers. This new SLR features the following... It sounds cool, but I'm not sure how I feel about having these built into the camera.

Art Filters
* Pop Art: Enhances colors, making them more saturated and vivid, creating high-impact pictures that express the joyful, lighthearted feeling of the Pop Art style of the 1960s.
* Soft Focus: Creates an ethereal, otherworldly atmosphere that renders subjects in a heavenly light without obscuring details.
* Pale & Light Color: Encloses the foreground of an image in flat gentle light and pastel colors reminiscent of a flashback scene in a movie.
* Light Tone: Renders shade and highlight areas softly to lend an elegant air to the subject.
* Grainy Film: Evokes the feeling of documentary footage shot in monochrome with grainy, high-contrast film.
* Pin Hole: Reduces the peripheral brightness of an image as though it were shot through a pin hole, connecting the viewer intimately with the subject at the center of the picture.

Multiple Exposures
...alter space and time by combining images shot in different locations and moments, lending your photos another dramatic dimension. For instance, take one shot of the full moon with the E-30 and the image will appear on the camera’s LCD. Then take another shot while the moon still appears on the LCD and superimpose a close-up of an owl perched on a tree branch. The two images will merge together seamlessly to form one dramatic image that has the haunting effect of a Halloween night...
The E-30 can combine up to four images in a single photograph, overlaying various subjects to create a montage that blends all the elements together.

Not only does the E-30 include these nifty image-altering features, it also has a swivel LCD screen like most HD video cameras have these days. Ooooh!!

Olympus says, "The creative possibilities are endless and only limited by your imagination."

I hear you, loud and clear, mon frere.
