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 latest PEN camera, the Olympus PEN E-PL3 camera, also called the PEN Lite, is another great addition to the family. Its image quality is very good, its performance level is high, and it carries a reasonable price.

Reviews: Olympus E-620: Review
Overall, the Olympus E-620 is quite impressive with features and very competitive for the price. Picture quality trumps the E-620's predecessors, although images still seem plagued by noise at higher ISO levels.
