Customer Reviews

Reviewed on 2008-07-20 Good Camera, Bad LCD screen to review your pictures I am in the prosumer category for cameras and very much interested in photography. I've researched extensively on the DSLR cameras before buying this camera and am very happy with my purchase. When I was researching for my first DSLR, my main concerns were size, price and live view options (among some others). And this camera excels for all these. It is the smallest and the lightest DSLR camera on the market today. Price is the best you can get for a DSLR, perhaps the cheapest. And live view is a big plus although you most likely end up not using it all the time because of the shutter lag. So, it is very capable camera and picture quality is superb. However it always needs some adjustments so are you an auto-settings-person you are better off with a DSLR-like compact camera rather than a real DSLR. My only complaint about this camera is its poor LCD screen quality. The colors look very very dull so much that you don't realize how wonderful the actual photograph is when seen on the computer screen. I also have a Panasonic Lumix TZ3 and perhaps I have been spoiled with its superb screen quality. This is again a very capable camera and, especially for starters I don't think there is a better option than this one (as it is the cheapest camera with quite nice tool set).

Reviewed on 2008-05-02 Great Camera! Buy this camera! I have read reviews that said that this camera was too small. I am 6'2" with big hands and I think the size is perfect. I think some people are stuck in the 35mm film days and don't realize that a digital slr does not have to be like a film slr. This camera is fast, small, and light. It takes great pictures. My other digital slr is a monster compared to this. I will keep it for some things (sigma sd14) but for most of my photography the e-410 is a perfect fit. Plus it has a dust removal system which sadly the sigma does not have. For the price there is nothing else that even comes close. Unless you are a professional photographer I can't see why you would need more. Buy this camera! I got mine from Cameta for $339.00 with the 14-42 lens. The ad said refurb but mine was an untouched demo.

Reviewed on 2008-04-26 Olympus E-410 The E-410 is a very good buy for an advanced amateur photographer. The price is also good,when compared to other makes of similar specifications. I enjoy photo session with E-410.Olympus Evolt E410 10MP Digital SLR Camera with 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 Zuiko Lens

Reviewed on 2008-03-15 Great camera for the price I've only had this camera about a month, but so far, I am really happy with it. It's small, lightweight, and easy to use. It takes great pictures in both bright and low light. The only reason I give this 4 starts out of 5 is that the operation can be a little slow, especially when making long exposures - there seems to be quite a delay in the time between when the shutter closes to when it displays your image, but other than that, this camera is perfect. I am a fan of film myself, and for any serious work I will probably always use film. I bought this camera for a photography class, and it's great for taking photos that turn out beautifully and are quickly and easily transferred to a class computer to turn in.

Reviewed on 2008-02-10 Elegant small DSLR It has been a great camera, meeting all my interest in having a very small and lightweight SLR camera with professional features. I would recommend it to others, with one small reservation. The default noise reduction filter setting is too aggressive and significantly softens fine detail in photos. With noise filtering turned off the pictures are crisp.
