yes wattew's recommendation

Good Points

Great colours. Speedy and accurate AF and LCD.

Bad Points

They do not supply a rechargeable battery and charger. Rubbish CD manual.

General Comments

I have owned both a Nikon D70 and a Canon 350d digital camera, therefore putting my expectations of the Olympus E500 digital camera high.

This really is a great piece of kit!! The colours are intense and rich, and the AF system is smooth quiet and reliable.

Respect given for wattew's review.
