  • ive heard that the view finder on this is a bit small, does it really make a big differance?

  • It is smaller than most DSLRs, but only you can decide if that's an issue for you personally.

  • gordon, what camera do you have?

  • I've owned cameras by almost all the manufacturers, but these days I tend to use the camera which I'm testing at the moment to maximise my time with it...

  • Hi Gordon,

    Great video. Seriously, it was a lot of help, espically with the limited reviews on the internet.

    Quick question though if you wouldn't mind. What's the viewfinder like compared to the e-500? The e-500's got a lot of complaints for being too small so I'm slightly worried about this.

    Thanks.

  • Hi MonkeyHugger, I'm glad the video was useful!

    I didn't have the E-500 alongside the E-400 when I reviewed it, so it's hard to say whether one had a better viewfinder than the other. But from my recollection they were similar, and both appear a little smaller than the best DSLRs. This is one of the downsides of Four Thirds bodies so far, but you'll have to look through one yourself to decide if it's an issue. Many people wouldn't notice.

    You can change those settings on every DSLR....

  • can you choose your apeture, ISO, and shutter speed? i want good shutter speed for taking light photos, so a shutter speed of about 15-30 secs. could you get back to me. thanks

  • @cameralabs Is it worth bying now? I've been offered the twin lens kit for 1000 danish kr (about £114)... I am an completely amateur but I'm interested in an SLR. Is it worth it? :)

  • ive just bought e420 is it a good camera

  • does it take videos? can you take a video with it and upload it i would like to see how it looks on youtube
