I'm ready for my close up!

Date of Review:  Jul 30, 2009
Review: I have owned this camera for over a year now.
I purchased it because of it's "live view" functions and the reputation of the Olympus name with lenses. It's size is great in comparison to it's competitors of equal value.

A DSLR for the common man

Date of Review:  May 13, 2008
The Bottom Line: Lightweight yet well built with excellent image quality and flexibility. Handles very well and is easy to setup and control. Great value for money, particularly in the two-lens kit.
Review: Two years is a long time in digital photography, with technology moving quickly and yesterday's cameras of choice fast becoming today's also-rans. Thus it is that two years after buying a Fuji S9000, I found myself considering a DSLR to replace it...

Is the Olympus E-510 the best digital camera for under $1000?

Date of Review:  May 18, 2008
The Bottom Line: Olympus offers very high quality lenses and excellent image quality for a reasonable price.
Review: Background information on my decision to get a new digital camera
I had a wedding coming up that I had been asked to take pictures of by a friend. I am not a professional photographer. I wanted to have a camera that would simplify this task. I...

DON'T WAIT Once they're gone-they're Gone & YOU LOSE

Date of Review:  Dec 30, 2008
The Bottom Line: I've gotten newspaper-published quality pics from this E-510 that did NOT break my bank.You'll be thrilled w/ the quality, price, weight, ect--I TAKE MINE EVERYWHERE ! ENJOY IT.
Review: I have upgraded to the OLYMPUS Evolt 510 w the 2 lens, kit and i have NOT LOOKED BACK !! The E-510 will match most ANYTHING & EVERYTHING you throw at it INDOORS & outside--all at a fraction of the cost of those canons ! Who do u think pasy for all...

No Movie Mode?

Date of Review:  Jul 23, 2007
Review: In reply to the previous reviewer, DSLRs do not have 'movie mode' functions. I recommend to that reviewer if he misses the movie mode, he should revert back to his digicam. I like the movie mode, and this is why I have kept my Canon Powershot S3IS...

Great starter DSLR

Date of Review:  Mar 30, 2008
The Bottom Line: If you are just starting out this is the perfect camera for you. Easy to use and quick programming.
Review: I did much research on DLSR's before purchasing my first. The camera is feature rich in a nice starter price range.

I have had the Olympus EVOLT E-510 for two months now and have been able to take nice pictures of anything. I like the 10...

Excellent grip and feel!

Date of Review:  Jun 7, 2009
Review: The feature set is very similar to the E-420, but for the extra dough you do get some significant capabilities, such as sensor-shift stabilization (including an updated system with a mode that accommodates panning while vertically oriented), a...

Wow! Pro quality for an affordable price!

Date of Review:  Jun 6, 2008
The Bottom Line: Buy it! Buy it! Buy it! Buy it! I recommend this camera to all of my students at the Community College. Solid, flexible, affordable.
Review: I've been doing film photography for over 30 years (both taking and teaching), so it was hard for me to switch to digital. Even though I'm quite technical, I can get overwhelmed by all the menu options, for example. After much research, I decided to...

Olympus Evolt E-510 Digital-SLR

Date of Review:  Apr 1, 2008
The Bottom Line: Over all a great camera at a great value.
Review: I have owned many digital cameras all point and shoot but never a Digital-SLR. With this being my first Digital-SLR I needed to find out all of my options and what camera was going to work best for me.

After reading tons of reviews by...

Olympus Evolt E-510

Date of Review:  Jul 13, 2007
The Bottom Line: Good end results; decent price for what you get; easy enough for beginner yet still has functions and features a professional could utilize.
Review: This is my first SLR and I am more than pleased with the quality of the photos. I took it out of the box, took a few minutes to sort of familiarize myself with the basic functions, then began taking some of the most gorgeous photos I've ever seen!...
