This is a great way to upgrade from the standard "point and shoot" cookie cutter cameras that are mass marketed. Having an auto focus helps dramatically until you can get in for lessons to be able to decypher the many terms and functions. Manufacturer has a free software download and good support for the Olympus line. The only downside I can find at this time is that it isn't the most popular brand and therefore used lenses can be difficult to find outside of ebay. Ultimately, you may not make a fortune taking pictures for National Geographic, but it will take you to the next level in your photography without requiring a second mortgage for the equipment. I am very pleased.
Olympus Evolt E-500 DSLR camera. It is an 8MP. I bought it because this comes with (2) lenses and I need the extra telephoto lens. I already have one such camera. Unless you want to have more lens selections, it matches the popular Canon and Nikon but cheaper in price. It is a fine camera with a lot of bell-and-whistle. It is physically bigger/heavier than the point-and-shoot, meaning two hands operation. Once it is out, it is fast to turn on and quick to shoot, almost no delay. I started with film SLR camera and went to the tiny point-and-shoot and back to DSLR. The point-and-shoot has too many issues, time delay, pictures not as sharp, halo light effects, red-eyes, etc. I am not saying DSLR does not have any issues, but it is much less. Pictures are sharp even in Auto-mode. Unlike the Canon and Nikon where they have a switch for AF/MF (focus) on the lens, Olympus is set through the screen. It has more options of whether you prefer to turn left or right. You have the choice of one or two memory chips. You can read more by going to online and I am making this short. I am please with this Olympus camera.Read full review
This is my first digital slr camera and I love it!!!!!!! I did a lot of research on these prior to deciding which one to purchase, and I am so glad I got this camera! It is easy to use, and if you aren't very tech savy, it is still easy to use! If I had to say anything I dislike about this camera is that you need to have a telephoto lens and macro lens for close ups, but for the quality of pictures it produces, it is well worth the investment. There are so many scene options, you can choose auto functions, which is great, or as you become more adapted to the camera, you can choose to have manual selections, its great! The flash is good, and I love how it comes ready to go, just make sure you have a media card-but it has to be CF or xd it will not take sd cards. There is not an image stabilizer, but with a little practice you can take great photos without relying on the image stabilization feature that soe cameras hvae. Also this camera is a little less expensive than say the canon rebel, but after researching the options, the olympus is a great choice!!!! The software that comes with the camera is oretty basic, and I really like paint.net for all of the options it has, and would reccomend that website to anyone with an slr camera. But all things considered this is a great camera for the first time slr purchase producing many options and high quality photos.Read full review
