Shawn Barnett talks to Sally Smith-Clemens about the Olympus E410 and E510 live view SLR digital cameras. For more PMA 2007 coverage go to imaging-resource.com
the e-510 is a much better camera to the eos400 or D40x or A100. quite simply, in terms of image quality, both will be 99% the same. but the 510 has built in IS and Liveview. dont underestimate the benefit of both of these, IS will give you blur free handheld shots where the eos400 cant. and liveview can allow you to take closeups, overheads, etc, very easily. add in the best dust shaker in the business, and the 510 is an amazing machine. it wasnt EISA 2007 camera of the year for no reason.
is it possible to use other brand of lens for e510? what kind? thanks in advance

Just got a E510, after doing a lot of research, it is defiantly worth the little extra cost.

the e-510's stabalization makes it the better buy imo.
Means you dont need to spend the extra money for a stabalized lense like you would with the 410.
So really your the extra cost is justified.
