Olympus Evolt E-520
Comments:
This DSLR is cheap and easy to use, but its speed and image quality aren't up to snuff.
Review Verdict: Although the Olympus Evolt E-520 made a good first impression with its solid, ergonomic build and intuitive interface, it quickly lost points for its slow speeds and lackluster image quality. Although the Nikon D40's ($499) interface takes getting used to

Olympus E-520 Digital Camera - First Shots - The Imaging Resource!
Comments:
The Olympus E-520 is very closely related to its predecessor the E-510, in much the same way that the E-420 announced last March was an analogue of the previous E-410 model. Externally, the difference is barely noticeable - the only signs beyond the model
Review Verdict: The E-520 also gets the 420's Live View Autofocus function, which operates via contrast detection of data streaming off the image sensor, where the '10-models required a brief interruption of live view to drop the mirror and perform AF using the camera's

QuickTake:
Pros: Built-in image stabilization Nice, comfortable grip (particularly when compared to the E-420) Compact size, yet full featured Loads of customization potential (e.g. mirror lock-up, time increments) 11-point contrast-detect autofocus in Live View (but slow
Cons: Shutter lag in Live View can be long, depending on the subject and light level LCD shows odd metallic-like sheen in bright daylight, can be distracting 1/180s X-Sync is relatively slow Phase-detect autofocus only has 3-points Autofocus and metering strugg

Olympus EVOLT E-520
Comments:
The EVOLT E-520 is the center of Olympus' three-pronged approach to the digital SLR market. Flanked by the cheaper and more restricted E-420 on one side and the professional-level E-3 on the other, the E-520 is designed to compete with most entry-level SL
Review Verdict: The E-520 is a camera that manages to package a significant number of excellent features and solid controls into a great body, but really let itself down in our performance testing. There's one of the best Live View modes on the market (with auto focus),

QuickTake:
Pros: - Solid comfortable construction - Good color accuracy test results - Auto focus in Live View mode - Large number of image presets - High level of control and customizability for advanced users
Cons: - Very poor white balance scores - Noisy images - Live View auto focus problematic and slow - Proprietary port instead of standard USB and AV

Olympus E-520 Digital SLR Review
Comments:
In a sector of the market that's becoming more crowded than a west end pub, Olympus introduce yet another model to its Four Thirds system. Peter Bargh drinks in the atmos
Review Verdict: First impressions are important, as that's where most of us make a decision in the camera shop. As soon as I picked up the camera I was on the wrong footing. Had someone forgot to add the meat to the flesh? The light weight sent out the wrong signal. Then

The general build quality of the E-520 is superb. The plastic body is beautifully constructed and all the switchgear is top rate
Review Verdict: Olympus has fixed this and the E-520 looks every bit as smart as the old OM series of SLRs that partly inspired the current Olympus digital line-up
