Excellent

8.1

View score

The good: Excellent photo quality; fast performance; solid, dust- and splash-proof body; flip-and-twist LCD; large, 100 percent coverage viewfinder; built-in wireless flash controller.

The bad: Relatively low resolution for the price; smallish LCD, some clunky design aspects.

The bottom line: Despite some interface quirks and a slightly awkward design, the Olympus E-3 fares quite well against its midrange dSLR competition.

Fantastic form and function balance in design



Rating: 10 out of 10 (Perfect)
Pros: Robust features, colour fidelity, jpeg out of camera better than NIKON D300
Cons: Eyecup slides off to easily.
Opinion:
A great camera to to into the studio or out in nature's worst conditions. I shot with it on one of Canada's coldest night, minus 30c. Snow, rain even frost on this beauty is no problem.
I tried the 5D, found the focus to be slower and the build quality lacking. Tried the D300 and D200 and was not impressed with the colour and dynamic range compared to the E-3.
Olympus is giving E-3 cameras to many camera stores to loan out for 3 days free trial. So go ahead try and compare for yourself.

 

Very Affordable dSLR



Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: Image stabilization and the live view technology
Cons: Low megapixel
Opinion:
I thin that this camera is very good...Certainly Olympus created a good camera.
