Anyone have an opinion on this camera?
And anyone who has it and how you find it?

This is what I have at the moment, any one have any recommendations of any better cameras?

I'm selling my E410 body on Ebay right now. Make no mistake, I do love this camera! The only reason I'm selling it is because my husband got me a 50-200mm f/2.8 for Christmas. The little E410 doesn't have image stabilazation, which causes problems for the large lens. No way I was giving up that lens!!

I decided to stay in the Olympus family. I know most of the controls, and feel pretty capable of shooting well with that brand of camera. I did alot of online research, and decided to buy the E620. Most critics think that it is pretty close to the top of the line in Olympus, yet it is a smaller camera at a lower price.

I'm keeping my kit lens at this time. I want to spend the money I earn on the E410 and put it towards a better wide angle lens. Something to replace the kit 14-54mm.

Lots of people knock the Olympus brand. Some refuse to even consider them. For me, I like shooting with something that's a little different. I'll put my shots on my e620 up against the big boys any day!

good luck with whatever you decide to do!
