The Olympus E-PL5 and the Olympus E-PM2 bring a new level of freedom to the creative shooting experience.
Pollution monitors often collect particulates that measure 10 micrometres across, known as PM10s, as well as the smaller PM2.5s.
While PM2.5 is regulated by the EPA, ultrafine particles are not.

And although EPA attributed her heart problem to PM2.5 in a published report, no one ever bothered to warn subsequent subjects of cardiac arrhythmia risk.

Xinhua says that readings in Beijing for the tiniest pollution particles - called PM2.5 - reached more than 400 microgrammes per cubic metre on Thursday, which is considered "dangerous".
The economic value of the health impacts was based on premature mortality, workdays lost, and other direct costs to the healthcare system resulting from emissions of PM2.5, NOx, and SO2.

Its guidelines say average concentrations of the tiniest pollution particles - called PM2.5 - should be no more than 10 microgrammes per cubic metre but UK standards allow up to 25.
Available in silver, black, white and red, the E-PM2 offers an intuitive vertical touch navigation menu displayed by pressing the MENU button to provide a fast and easy way to switch modes with fewer steps.
One of the pollutants was a fine particulate substance known as PM2.5, a major component of diesel exhaust which EPA had determined to be unsafe for inhalation at any level, particularly for health-impaired and elderly populations.

Beijing News have expressed its support to the proposal in its editorial, pointing out that motor emission is the biggest source of PM2.5 - which people across China have been appealing for the government to keep track of.
The Olympus PEN E-PL5 and the Olympus PEN E-PM2 will be available in October and ship with the Body, Flash FL-LM1, Li-ion battery BLS-5, Li-ion battery charger BCS-5, USB cable, AV cable, Shoulder strap, OLYMPUS Viewer 2 (CD-ROM), Instruction manual and Warranty card.
The Olympus PEN E-PL5 and PEN E-PM2 deliver amazing image quality by packing superior image technology, blazing fast processing speed and total creative control in classic bodies that combine the portability and ease of use of a point-and-shoot without the complexity of a DSLR.
While particulate matter emitted by vehicles make up a small part of overall particulate matter in China, in dense urban areas, it is almost certainly the highest contributor to human exposure of PM2.5, according to Vance Wagner, a senior researcher at the International Council on Clean Transportation.
Consider, for example, a spate of new studies that have found a rather convincing correlation between the presence of small particulate matter (PM2.5, the fine particles blown into the air by road traffic, coal-fired power plants, industrial manufacturing, and residential wood fuel combustion) and both obesity and diabetes.
