5 out of 5 stars Takes great pictures if you learn how to use it   January 11, 2010
M. D. Gibson
I have owned this camera (Olympus E-420) for over a year now and have been very pleased with its performance.
The picture and color quality is FANTASTIC and digital noise is very very low in conditions with low light, so long as I stick to the 'low key' constrast setting.
I share the same complaint of the user giving this camera 1 star...the autofocus fails to focus at times if I'm shooting in a dark setting. I work around this problem by keeping the camera on a single point autofocus setting and - gasp - just pointing the camera at the thing I want to focus on. In other words, the multipoint autofocus is slow but not usually necessary, especially if you're used to using an SLR.



5 out of 5 stars Small enough with bold pictures   January 7, 2010

I love this camera its compact light and easy to use. I have nothing to say about it other than the options could be a bit greater but the price versus the options is really exceptional.

... and I'm very happy with my purchase. One of the least expensive out there with 10 megapixs or more and it does everything. This will keep me happy for quite a while. If you want to start out and not spend an arm and a leg, this is for you.

I've been using a Point-and-Shoot camera for years now, and I felt that I maxed out its potential. Sure, landscape photography is nice, but i've always been a wildlife guy & trying to be a wildlife photographer with a point-and-shoot isn't going to get you good results. It was at this point that I decided I wanted an SLR w/ interchangable lenses. I chose the Olympus E-420 because it was within my price range and list of features.

I've been learning and using this camera for a few months now, and I am very happy with the results. Coupled with a telephoto lens, my wildlife photography collection now includes over 60+ bird species in my area.

I would recommend this camera to someone looking to get a SLR camera. The price is great and Olympus Zuiko lenses are very cost friendly.

I love this camera!!!! I bought a Nikon all manual camera when I was in the service overseas and back some years sold the camera to get a video camera!!! Big mistake! I looked for a new manual film recently and decided to go digital. That was my best decision. I researched all the digital cameras and compared price and features and I decided on the olympus. This was an even bigger good decision. The camera is fast, no lag time for shutter to actually take the picture. I love the rapid multi picture feature. It snaps pics one after another with no lag time!!!! I love it! The most important feature is the picture itself, they are very sharp and excellent detail in macro mode. I take pics of flowers close up and they look like pictures in photography magazines. I looked at the nikon D40 and thought this was a better camera. The lens is excellent!!!
You can't go wrong with this camera. i did manual film for years and this is so much better and has the ability to do all manual if you like. The menus are very good. I love the camera!!!!!
