Excellent camera at an excellent praice!
I bought an Olympus E-Volt 500, two lens kit, and was extremely satisfied with it. I decided to upgrade and was hesitant after reading some of the comments by reviewers, but trusted Olympus from past experience also with film cameras. So far, it has been an absolutely great choice for the price. All the lenses, including my 70-300mm work fantastic. I updated my firmware for the camera and lenses and the pictures are stunning.

Fine Camera
First: Service from Adorama was outstanding as usual. CONS: A small sensor size (i.e. 4/3rds) will always have limitations over a larger sensor.

The Olympus E-520 is a 10.0 Megapixel digital SLR camera body. The E-520's industry-leading Image Stabilization technology, which is built into the camera body, compensates for movement so you can capture blur-free shots with any lens - even at slow shutter speeds. Autofocus Live View brings subjects into sharp focus; it is the perfect tool for macro, portrait or even landscape shooting. This camera was built to produce amazing results for photo hobbyists and serious digital photographers alike.
The E-520's in-body Mechanical Image Stabilization has three modes for increased versatility. The IS-1 mode adjusts the sensor on both the x and Y-axes to compensate for movement by the photographer, so images stay sharp even at slow shutter speeds.
Olympus E-520 10.0 Megapixel Digital SLR Camera Body with 2.7" HyperCrystal II LCD Screen Features
- In-Body Image Stabilization is a state-of-the-art technology, preventing camera shake for blur free photography
- On-screen Autofocus with Live View works as seamlessly as a point-and-shoot to display subjects, in focus, on the LCD the instant the shutter is pressed half way
- Shadow Adjustment Technology captures detail in the bright areas of a frame and opens up detail in the shadows that other cameras would render too dark or underexposed
- Face Detection Technology targets and locks on up to eight faces to ensure accurate focus for crystal clear, amazing portraits. The LCD shows the faces detected for ease of use
- The powerful 10-megapixel Live-MOS sensor means you'll see more detail in your pictures than ever before. And you'll have the flexibility to crop and still produce large, detailed prints
- The Olympus dust reduction system is an industry first and a proven technology. Dust is flung away and collected so it can't come back
- The E-520's 2.7" HyperCrystal II LCD delivers twice the contrast and better viewing in extreme lighting conditions, a broader range of color detail and a wider angle of view on the LCD
- With 20 easy-to-use Scene-Select Modes you can simply select the right mode for your shot; the E-520 takes care of the rest. The 20 modes cover practically every common shooting scenario including Portrait, Fireworks, Sports, Landscape, Sunset and many more, even underwater
- Perfect Shot Preview enables you to view and select your favorite effect right on the LCD and see how the image will look, even before you capture it
- The E- 520's TruePic III processor gives you better color and quality through true-to-life skin tones, brilliant blue skies, precise color transitions, more detail and less image noise

- Fire off a burst of shots at 3.5 frames per second. The E-520's burst rate is perfect for capturing the ideal shot at a backyard birthday party or at a youth soccer game
- The E-520's Auto White Balance function analyzes information from the scene and calibrates how a white object should appear under a variety of light sources, so your images turn out vibrant and life like
- The benefits of the Four Thirds Mount on Olympus E-System cameras are many. You get a digitally designed image sensor, a compact design, as well as expandability and compatibility with the rest of the Four Thirds System
