I bought my camera about a month ago, and I love it. It was the Olympus E-520 Digital SLR Camera with the 14-44 zoom lense. I was immediately impressed with all the features and settings that you can choose from. Starting with the 20 different scene modes, 4 advanced shooting modes and 7 automatic shooting modes. It has a larger LCD monitor which can be used for live view shooting and recording and also serves as a Super Control Panel that allows the display of shooting settings. It's lightweight despite being larger than it's predecessor the E-510. I was also very pleased with the great price and with all the accessories that were included. The software that is included allows you to manage, edit and store your photo library, it's a great addition. My only complaint is that this camera uses an xD picture card, as opposed to the standard "SD" that we see in just about all of the cameras out there. The xD 2G holds about 600 photos, which is great, but if you need a replacement card, you can't just buy them at your local electronics store, you can only get them through a certified Olympus Retailer, and that't kind of a hassle. Not to mention that it may become obsolete in a couple of years. So if you have one now, or are thinking about getting one, make sure you stock up on a few xD picture cards. Despite that, I would highly recommend this camera if you want to get a high quality camera with a budget price. I am not a professional photographer, but I do enjoy photographing nature shots, landscapes or just take photos of a birthday party or Christmas dinner at home. And if you're like me, you're gonna love this one. It allows you to take professional-type photos without having to invest 2 to 3 thousand dollars on a camera. It's great for people who want to get into photography but are not ready to make a large investment in the equipment. Again, I am very happy with my purchase and I would highly recommend it to someone.Vollständige Rezension lesen
I've owned the E-520 for about 9 months and I'm impressed. As a photographer, both professionally and personally for the past 20 years, I've had my share of cameras from old film Minoltas, Nikons and Ricohs, to newer pro-level Nikon digitals and even medium-format film. The E-520 has been a welcome investment. The size, weight and feel are close to my old Nikon FE with a similar lens. However the ergonomics ofthe E-520 are much better. It's sturdy and there's not a cheap bone on the outside. The viewfinder is clear and adjustable; the dislay is large (2.5 inches across and 2 inches tall) and the controls are easy to use, even in the cold with thin gloves on. It has a hot shoe plus on-board flash plus it doesn't burn through batteries like my old Nikon D-3 did. The professional feel to the camera carries over to the images it takes. Very crisp images thanks to the Zuiko lenses (I have the 14-42 mm and 40-150 mm zooms). The lenses are lightweight and not bulky (again like the old Nikons). However, there are drawbacks. In low light, it seems the autofocus has a hard time picking a subject and manual focus is best. Also, you need to be aware of the white balance - at times, I've notice the auto white balance becomes confused rendering off-color pics. However, these are easily correctible once you get used to the camera. Everything is adjustable manually, so taking the perfect shot is simply a matter of getting to know your camera. Overall, the Olympus E-520 ranks as one of my favorite cameras ever. Prior to my purchase, I scouted the usual offerings from Canon and Nikon and even looked at Fujifilm. However, the combination of features and price led me to this camera - and I'm glad I bought it. Nikons and Canons are like Mustangs and Chevelles - everone has one. Do yourself a favor and check out the Olympus E-520. You'll be happy, and you're sure to have something none of your friends have - and that's always a good thing!Vollständige Rezension lesen
This is my first DSLR camera. I spent many days and nights, stressing over whether I wanted an Olympus E-520, or a Nikon D3000, or the Canon's 450D. I strongly suggest you go to a camera shop, and handle any camera you are interested in BEFORE purchasing, it truly boils down to which suits you the best. First of all, Canon and Nikon are the big dogs in advertising. Their names are well known, and recognizable. Olympus on the other hand does not advertise like its competitors. They are more "word of mouth". Just because they are not as popular, has NOTHING to do with their quality! They are more affordable, and giving their competitors a run for their money. Once I finally committed to the Olympus E-520, I couldn't be happier. I love how sturdy this camera feels in my hands. Canon was way too plastic feeling, and nikon's shape felt off balance. I also enjoy where all the buttons are, as everything you need to adjust is right there. Canons aperture/shutter wheel was in an awkward position. Nikon was very much alike Olympus. It takes no time at all to get familiar with all these buttons. Olympus might have a layered menu but everything you need to adjust while taking a picture is easily accessible with their on own button right there on the camera, including white balance, iso, autofocus, metering, flash ETC) Some might think the menu being so jammed packed is confusing, but I am the queen of loving options - and realize this menu just gives me more to play with. They seriously put A LOT of features in this dreamy light-weight camera! Extremely - versatile! BEAUTIFUL photos, whether you are using it in manual or an automode. You can always use one of the 20 pre-set scene modes, to effortlessly take a beautiful picture. Don't have time to mess with the manual settings? Just put into "Macro" to take a beautiful photo of a flower up close -OR- taking a picture of the mountain at a vista point? Just put it onto landscape! So many different modes, it makes things easy. I also enjoy putting it into autofocus / manual mode. It will automatically find what i want to bring into focus, but I have the choice to spin the focus ring to adjust if needed. The zuiko lenses are made from the best quality glass out there. Much better quality than you will find with other brands. A little more expensive, and not as many lenses available as it competitors, but who's gonna buy all the lenses that are made for each camera? It's not likely - so that doesn't bother me at all. Image stabilization works like a dream! It's built into the Olympus camera, where-as other brands its only built into the lens. This camera does not take SD cards which are more popular, it takes Compact Flash - which I think is great mostly because compact flash are faster and better quality than an SD card. This means you pictures are recorded quicker. I have only had this camera for a short while, and have already learned so much. It's such a cool camera, even my friends who are intimidated by DSLR's can pick it up, and snap a few shots with no problem with all the different scene modes. As easy as a point and shoot, but all the capability of an SLR. One last thing - IT SOUNDS LIKE A CAMERA! I love the sounds it makes while snapping shots! It truly enhances the moment! LOL, Nikon has a good sound too - Canons sound totally electronic. I would definitely recommend this camera to anyone who hasn't tried Olympus, or a beginner looking for a decent DSLR.Vollständige Rezension lesen
I love taking pictures but with the price of doing film, I decided to go digital. About a year ago I purchased an evolt-510. Good Olympus camera but the evolt-520 has just a couple features that made me want to upgrade. Shadow adjustments, live view, face detectioin mode, and of course the in camera stabilation makes the evolt-520 a very worthy camera. I've already taken some excellent photos with it. The standard 14/42 kit lens is very good but I do recommend at least the 14/52 Olympus zoom lens for the focal length and quality.
I received the camera one day and was shooting pictures like a pro the next day. The camera makes it easy! Olympus quality is obvious in this camera, so many features it will take me years to use them all. And while I have been playing around with it, I have slowly started getting used to how they all work. I am by no means a professional photographer, so learning is taking priority. The instructions are very clear and well written to help even a novice like me. I would recommend this camera to anyone who is interested in getting into photography, or would just like a camera that takes great photos. Moving beyond the "point and click" is a fun and rewarding experience. My friends and family have been very impressed with the quality of the photos and are inviting me out to many events to take the photos. Lots of fun!Vollständige Rezension lesen
