The Olympus E-620, a 12.3-megapixel SLR priced at $799.99 that includes an articulated LCD that pivots and turns freely, and a set of Art Filters to create dramatic visual effects. However, we found significant problems with the camera's image quality in our lab testing.

Olympus E-620 Digicam Review
Olympus has established its name for manufacturing very well specified cameras in the entry levels. Olympus was the first company to offer two cameras in the entry brackets the little E-410 and its image-stabilized big brother, the E-510 which was later upgraded to the 420 and 520 respectively.

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.

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 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

[REVIEW-OLYMPUS E-620 DSLR]
This 12 megapixel DSLR is the latest iteration of the Olympus Four Thirds system. It has the effective supersonic sensor dust removal system and image stabilisation by sensor shift that we now expect from Olympus. A four stop advantage is claimed for image stabilisation.
Pros:
- Olympus kit lenses are a cut above the rest, and the lens supplied with this camera is no exception
- Mechanically and optically the Olympus lenses are outstanding
- Resolution and contrast are good
- And beyond the kit lenses are the Olympus professional quality lenses which are expensive but superb
Cons:
- Auto white balance is not great
- The viewfinder is a little cramped compared with the conventional competition
- This is a product of the smaller sensor

Pros:
- compact size
- features packed
- swivel lcd screen
Cons:
- noisy image at 800 or above
- small viewfinder
