I bought this camera the day it hit the shelves. I have been an avid Olympus user for years because I have really come to appreciate the innovation of their cameras, the benefits of the 4x3 dimensions of images, and the compact size.
Pros:
- Compact size
- improved high ISO capabilities over previous generations of Olympus cameras
- no high ISO banding that was seen on a few previous generations
- swivel screen
- improved viewfinder
- improved auto-focus system
- more auto-focus points
- optional battery grip
- ease of use
- incredible dynamic...
Cons:
- If you don't like compact cameras, then look at the E-30
- It has nearly the same feature set but will meet the needs of those that don't want a compact, light camera
- The autofocus system responds a bit differently than what was in previous generation Olympus DSLR's, so that took me a bit of getting...

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 keeps getting better.
I've used this camera for everything from Senior Portraits to Wedding Candids. For kids pics to sports action shots. Even with the kit lenses, its a great way to break into a DSLR.
Pros:
- Easy To Use
- Fast / Accurate Auto-Focus
- Fast Shutter Speed
- Good Image Quality
- Good Image Stabilization
- Large Clear LCD
- Tilt /swivel lcd
Cons:
- Noisy At High ISO
- Poor In Low Light

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.

Olympus E-620
It's got the best of both worlds from the speedy focusing of the E-3 to the portability and ease of use from the E-520. Olympus now make room in the ever expanding stable for the E-620.
Pros:
- Great colours
- Articulated screen
- Fast focusing
- Massively expanded exposure compensation
- Built-in flash is very natural
Cons:
- Build could be better
- Noise still needs some addressing

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.
