Olympus E-520
Still learning to use the E-520. It is my first DSLR so I can't compare to any other. I have always preferred more options to less. The E-520 certainly possesses options. The self-cleaning sensor is one of the features that are not available on many competitor cameras. However, that is sort of a behind-the-scenes thing that goes unnoticed. The live view is also a feature that many other models does not possess. While the features and options are vast, the adjustment and setting of these are quite intuitive. The photos are excellent using raw. The only con I have reservations with is the slightly smaller sensor. I have not noticed any instances where that has created problems and many experts feel that it is a benefit since greater zoom can be achieved. Overall the E-520 is a joy to use.
