Olympus E-620 review
The most compact and lightweight mid-range DSLR on the market, the Olympus E-620, looks a tad toy-like next to the chunkier likes of the Nikon D5000 and Canon 500D . But make no mistake: this is a serious piece of image-snapping kit, aimed at the semi-experienced market.

The Four Thirds range has tended to lag a fraction behind the best contemporary APS-C sensor-size DSLRs in terms of absolute performance but make up some of the difference with excellent lenses, feature-packed specifications, and lower sticker prices.
Pros:
- Superb image quality
- Good tonal response and dynamic range (at ISO 200 and above
- Good high ISO performance
- Built-in Image Stabilization
- Generally fast and responsive in use
- Twist and swivel screen useful for certain shooting types
- JPEG engine makes the most of the sensor's output
- Useful
Cons:
- Contrast detect AF pretty slow in live view (which is often the case on DSLRs
- Moderate LCD screen resolution (and too reflective in bright light
- Slightly lower absolute resolution than rest of class
- Complicated menu system not that easy to navigate (though it offers a great degree of user

Review: Olympus E-620 DSLR
Camera costs are falling faster than a bowling ball in a black hole. Case in point: The Olympus E-620, an inexpensive digital single-lens reflex camera that won't weigh your shoulder down, is easy to use and takes fine pictures in a wide variety of conditions.
Pros:
- Easy to use
- Lithe and compact size for a DSLR
- Spiffy swiveling LCD screen
- Excellent shots in photon-rich environments
- Body-based image stabilization
- Easy to configure in both automatic and manual modes
Cons:
- Poor low-light performance
- Noisy images above ISO 1000
- Doesn't shoot video
- Plastic body and lens construction feels like it could break if squeezed too hard

Olympus E-620 Digital SLR Review
Olympus' latest E-620 DSLR targets users who are interested in something better than a budget entry-level DSLRs, that don't want to pay for an upper mid-range or semi-pro body. This new camera is packed with features from the higher-end E-30, but uses a body that's closer in size to the compact...
Pros:
- Compact
- lightweight body
- Built-in image stabilization
- Price / feature balance
- Fully-articulating screen
Cons:
- No movie mode
- Menu & main screens seem dated
- ISO performance not as good as rival DSLRs with bigger sensors
- No HDMI port

Olympus E-620 review
Between the excellent Live View mode, pop-out LCD screen and the art modes, the Olympus E-620 is a lot of fun to use. We recommend it if you want a compact digital SLR that’s not hard to use and which doesn’t compromise on advanced features.

Olympus E-620
The Olympus E-620 is the latest addition to Olympus' now extensive range of Four Thirds system digital SLR cameras. Slotting into the range above the E-520 and E-450 models and below the E-30, the E620 borrows features from all three cameras.
