Olympus E-410 Digital SLR Camera (ED 14-42mm 1:3.5-5.6 & ED 40-150mm 1:4.0-5.6)
Only a few months after the introduction of the revolutionary E-400 to the world of digital SLR photography, Olympus would like to present its successor, the E-410, which comes equipped with a new sensor, a TruePic III image processor and a Live View function. The E-400?s CCD sensor has moved aside to make way for the E-410?s new 10-megapixel Live MOS sensor, which makes sure you get fantastic results each and every time, while its Live View function enables users to aim on the 2.5? HyperCrystal LCD screen before taking their photo, just as they would with a compact digital camera. The E-410 has also kept the size of its predecessor, which is significantly smaller than other digital SLR cameras, for easier handling, and comes with automatic and manual options, which include 32 scene modes, a burst mode of three photos per second, an AE lock, as well as field depth and improved image processing controls, so you can really let your creativity run wild! It?s also compatible with Compact Flash, xD and Microdrive memory cards and employs the renowned anti-dust filter from Olympus, a tried and tested technology that efficiently prevents dust from settling on the sensor and ruining the quality of the image. This anti-dust protection is made up of a supersonic wave filter, which is activated every time the camera is switched on. Supplied with a standard compact ED 14-42 mm 1:3.5-5.6 lens, which is ideal for all kinds of photographs (from common wide-angle photos to traditional telephoto portraits) and an ED 40-150 mm 1:4.0-5.6 lens for portrait and sports photography, the E-410 is compatible with a host of different accessories and lenses. More high performance than its predecessor, the E-410 is the perfect choice for those of you looking to purchase a practical yet compact digital reflex camera.
Customer Review: I’m extremely pleased with it.
This is my first digital SLR. I did A-level Photography many years ago and used a Pentax SLR so familiar with the concept. I’ve been using a compact digital camera in the last few years but now want to take more adventures and creative pictures.
The E410 I bought came with a DVD which ran thought most of the features which I found extremely helpful.
If you go to youtube and search for E410 you can find reviews from a few camera magazines and one from the Gadget show (channel 5).
I’m extremely pleased with it.
Customer Review: Superb camera
Am a relative beginner in this field. Have been dithering for ages about which DSLR to get and finally ended up with this one. It is superb. I cannot fault it so far, and the photos produced are really excellent quality. My first camera was an Olympus OM10, and nothing has ever quite lived up to it since. Have tried Canon, and whilst impressed with their superb IXUS 40 compact camera, the digital SLRs leave me cold. Too heavy, and not the picture quality I get with this Olympus. The E410 is so light and nifty in comparison. Can imagine taking it out and about, unlike its heavier counterparts. Am not even a serious amateur, but straight from the box this camera was taking superb pin sharp shots, even before I had fully mastered the settings. The only downside is the manual, which I do find confusing at times. However, the superb camera review available on dpreview’s website does answer a lot of my questions. Would suggest a visit there for the low down. They ‘Highly Recommend’ this camera, incidently! One thing they suggest, to increase image sharpness is to turn off the Noise Reduction and set the Sharpness to (-2). I did this and they are right!
Anyway, my advice is to take the plunge, don’t go with the Clunky Canon Crowd. Get a neat and stylish Oly 410 and I am sure you won’t be disappointed.
