5 out of 5 stars A Great Camera...even for a beginner.   June 13, 2008
I love this camera! I am a complete novice to anything beyond a disposable camera, but this camera makes me feel like a pro. Can be a little intimidating at times, but I guess that's what the instruction manual is for. The range of possibilities for each shot is my favorite thing about the camera. I love experimenting with the flash, the color and the shutter speed to see how different a shot can come out. The LCD is a great tool for live view, but I mostly use the viewfinder. More than I've ever spent on anything, but worth every penny!!


5 out of 5 stars Really pleased   June 8, 2008

I bought the body only from Amazon.com. Separately, I purchased the 25mm pancake prime and the 14-54mm zoom (rather than the 2 kit lenses). The pictures I have taken so far are excellent. After reading comment after comment about difficulties with autofocus in low light (NEVER with any reference to what lens was being used and at what settings) I was a tiny bit concerned. However, I am really pleased with the AF in low light situations. Of course, both my lenses are 2.8. When my old Olympus C-2100UZ died, I was devastated and went through a few point-and-shoots with no satisfaction. I'm really glad to be back with an Olympus product.


4 out of 5 stars Olympus E-510   June 7, 2008

This is an excillent camera(so underrated) and I also use a Nikon D-80, Fuji s100fs.
The lenses are the only ones I am aware of that get updates by themselves over the internet with Olympus software. Features that are too numerous to list but the pictures are pristine. Any talk of lower dynamic range just do not show from my wildlife pictures and I have taken a lot for years. Started with an E-300 loved so much > E-500 loved even more and the bargain of all time the E-510. Build perfect quality and you know when holding. The lenses are not cheap but the 18-180mm may be the last lens you ever buy! Just a beautiful camera for almost "point and shoot" cash. Go for it!

Good camera. Nice small size, not to big/small. I wear glasses and the viewfinder is not in focus for me, also bifocals...overall is a nice camera. I have used Olympus before, OM-1. Cost was great from Amazon...also bought spare battery. I only gave 4 stars for the eyeglass problem.


4 out of 5 stars Olympus Evolt 510 almost perfect   May 30, 2008

I have used the camera for a variety of pictures over the past month and have found it takes very good pictures. This is my first DSLR, and I believe it is a good value for the money.
My only complaint is that the camera autofocus sometimes has trouble indoors when the light isn't so great. Seems the camera can't find focus quickly, even when using the flash assist when focusing.
Overall, though, I'm quite happy. The zoom 150MM telephoto has allowed me to take some great wildlife shots
