Thoughts on the Olympus Evolt E-500

What we liked:  The menu system is rather easy to navigate and very intuitive.  The design is compact, which is a plus, while also having automated and manual features that appeal to serious people and those that are new to SLR.

What we didn’t like:   The Zuiko lens did not show focal distance.  The dust reduction feature causes slow start-up time and the automatic white balance can be unreliable in some conditions.

Verdict:  This camera is a great compact that is easy to use.  The feature set is broad when compared to other cameras in the class, with good overall photo quality.
