Olympus launch E-3 firmware version 1.2

Version 1.2 has incorporated the following upgrade:

• Improved the consistency of the auto white balance.

Those who haven't previously installed version 1.1 will also gain the following improvements:

• Enabled use of the Image Stabilisation function with non-Four Thirds System interchangeable lenses by inputting a specific focal length.
• Matched rotation of the dial on the rear of the Power Battery Holder HLD-4 and the movement direction of the AF target.
• Increased number of storable still pictures by improving the battery check when the Power Battery Holder HLD-4 is attached.
• Focusing now stops immediately when the AF start button (AEL/AFL or Fn button) is released.
• Correction of the phenomenon where the flash control caused an under exposure while using bounce flash at short distances with the FL-50R or FL-36R Electronic Flash.
• Improved selection and prioritisation of the central five ranging points when shooting in C-AF mode and Dynamic-single Target mode.
