- Feature-packed yet easy to use
- Kit comes with two lenses
- Live View has its own dedicated button

The E-620 is the latest addition to Olympus' E-series of DSLRs and sits above the (bulkier) E-520 and below the recent E-30, with which it shares many features, including the 12.3MP Live-MOS sensor.

Cons:
- Small viewfinder is slightly blurry
- many complex features means complexity of set up (AF adjustment for example

Give it a Look
I puchased this camera about a year ago. I used it for taking pictures of my son playing football. My camera came with the two kit lenses and I will be honest here, if you do not have a really bright area, the lenses are not fast enough to stop the action.

Olympus E-600
I've had an E-600 for almost two years now. I understand it is the same e-620 but without three art-filters and without aspect ratio control. Hence I think that my comments will be applicable to the e-620 as well.
Pros:
- I've had an E-600 for almost two years now
- I understand it is the same e-620 but without three art-filters and without aspect ratio control.
Cons:
- It is not good for shooting sports
- I tried to take some pictures of my brother racing his go-kart with the 70-150mm kit lense on a dark afternoon
- In all honesty I found the camera slow and cranking up the ISO above 1250 induces too much noise.

Olympus E-620
We found the most thorough, objective reviews of the Olympus E-620 at PopPhoto.com and its U.K. equivalent, Amateur Photographer. ConsumerReports.org provides less detail, but ranks the Olympus E-620 in comparison with 23 other digital SLR cameras. The single-product review at CNET is more critical.
Pros:
- Articulating LCD with live view
- Image-stabilization built into body
- Small and light
- Wireless flash controller
Cons:
- Slow
- jumpy autofocus
- No video
- Small viewfinder and small 2.7-inch LCD
- Image noise gets mixed reviews

Simply the Great
Olympus is one of the unsung heroes in most of the markets in the world because of their marketing strategy or what ever the reason is. A sort history before I start, this is my second D-SLR and first one was Sony Alpha 200.
