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 E620 review

Olympus E-620 digital SLR review : At the time of the Olympus E-620 introduction, it was not yet clear that this would in fact be the only new digital SLR during the PMA show. Whether or not this signifies something is yet to be discovered, although it certainly is remarkable.
