Abstract: When Olympus announced its E-400 towards the end of last year, it arrived with the dubious honour of being the first DSLR not to be available worldwide, with Olympus USA deciding not to take the camera. With North America effectively

The Olympus E-410s portability is perhaps its biggest boon, and certainly one of its greatest sales assets - although in truth there is not a great deal of difference in terms of dimensions with the likes of Nikons 10MP D40x. Its also, for me, less...
Abstract: On Tuesday I reviewed the Olympus E-510 digital SLR, a £600 high-spec semi-pro DSLR with body-integral image stabilisation, SSWF anti-dust system and monitor live view, and I was more than a little impressed with it. Today I'm taking a look at the E-510's...
Abstract: Although not without flaws, the Olympus E-510 and Olympus E-410 bring Olympus DSLR cameras in line with the competition. While previous Olympus DSLR cameras featured noticeably more noise than other brands, the E-410 shows less image noise than its p...
Image quality, handling, ease of use, excellent kit lenses, very responsive.
Pentamirror viewfinder is small and quite gloomy, bright conditions hamper Live View, barrel distortion on 14-42mm standard zoom.
This is a retro-looking, ultra-compact digital SLR, but one so packed with kit that you’d expect to have to pay twice as much as it costs. The E-400 was overly expensive, whereas here the price is just about right. It may be small in external physica...
Small and light without compromising comfort, Very effective anti-dust system, Unique Live View facility, Easy access to settings.
Very limited anti-shake options, Body may be too small for bigger hands, Motorised manual focus (like all Four Thirds), E-510 a tempting alternative with anti-shake.
Like its predecessor, the Olympus E-410 has a lot going for it: it’s very small and light without compromising comfort or usability, there’s quick and easy access to all the settings, the resolving power and noise levels are comparable to the...

Very compact for a dSLR; speedy; Live View mode (LCD preview) operation.
Subpar autofocus, exposure, and automatic white-balance performance; some poor choices for default settings.
Olympus compact dSLR for newbies, the Evolt E-410, is a decent choice if youre looking to save space in your bag, but issues with its automatic exposure and white balance make it an unsatisfactory option as a first dSLR.

Excellent image quality, Excellent metering, Very good colour rendition, RAW, JPEG and RAW+JPEG image formats, Live View mode, Dust reduction system, Excellent value for money
Only 3 AF points, No image stabilzation, TTL viewfinder a bit small
The Olympus E-410 is likely the most compact digital SLR currently on the market. And, although its design is clearly inspired from classic film amateur-level SLRs and quite sober, it includes all the latest technical developments. The body is made of...
