I have been wanting a dslr for a long time and have always used Olymuus cameras. I am very unexperienced in the slr world, but love taking pictures and the photo bug had hit me hard. I had finally decided to purchase a dslr and then found that olympus had this model comming out. I read reviews and decided this one was worth waiting for the release of. from Amazon.com I liked it - solid camera, but I missed the swivel screen. It was really useful when shooting at odd angles (such as in a crowd). So along comes the E-620 and I jumped at it. I then added the battery grip, an Olympus grip strap and a Zuiko 18-180 lens. from Amazon.com Let me start by saying this is my third Olympus SLR, my first DSLR and my seventh Olympus overall. Each camera gets better and better. from Amazon.com In my studio, I do my own flower studies and reproduce original artwork for artists and crafters. My main system is a Pentax K20D with DA* and DA lenses. I use an Olympus E series as a backup system or when I want to travel light. I have recently replaced my E-510, that had served me well for one year, with an E-620 two-lens kit. from Amazon.com I selected the E-620 for all of the 5-star good reasons mentioned so far but most importantly because it has a very wide dynamic range, even compared to DSLRs at twice the cost. Dynamic range is my hot button, and this camera has it. from Amazon.com The plastic slide in contact protector for the external flash and the slide on plastic light shield for the optical viewfinder are both items that are very likely to become lost or misplaced. It would be very nice if they were designed to be moved into or out of position without having to completely remove them from the camera thus reducing the chance of loss. However, all in all the E-620 is a very capable and nice camera and I would recommend it to anyone who is sure they want to step away from a point and shoot. One additional consideration, which many professionals suggest, is you may want to consider higher grade lenses than the lenses that come packaged with the camera as a kit. from Amazon.com Olympus has knocked one out of the park! I have had my e620 for just a few days and I must say I am very impressed with it's capabilities and features. from Amazon.com I would purchase this camera, again, in a heartbeat. It is easy to use, fits well in my hand (and my hands are quite bony and large). It is comfortable to use, and Olympus makes it easy by keeping things simple. The only downfall I have experienced with the camera, is not the camera but with the software that accompanies the camera. from Amazon.com I upgraded to E-620 from E-510 and was a mistake. I returned the camera for a refund. from Amazon.com I bought an Olympus E-620 from Adorama a few weeks ago and took it to Yellowstone to compare performance with my other Olympus digital cameras--an E-330 and an E-510. Took along my two good Olympus lenses--a 14-54mm and an 11/22mm. from Amazon.com
