Olympus EVOLT E-520

Digital Camera Review

Jul 29, 2008 - By Tim Barribeau
3.3 The Olympus EVOLT E-520 is a 10-megapixel entry-level SLR that features the best Live View in its price class and noteworthy color accuracy. It delivers a range of useful features, good automatic controls for those new to SLR photography as well as extensive customization options for experienced users. While the E-520 shoots very well in bright lighting, it fares poorly in low light and at high ISO settings, producing noisy photos with  limited dynamic range. The camera retails for $699.99 with a 14-42mm Zuiko lens.
