Date of Review:  Jan 5, 2005
The Bottom Line: Only if you have the cash, this is a great entry into the SLR market.
Review: ***** UPDATED AS OF 1/11/05 ****** Scroll to bottom for update!

Fresh out of the gates this holiday season was the Olympus E-Volt E300 digital SLR camera. Capitalizing on Olympus' interchangable digital Zukio lens system, this 8.1...

Excellence at half the price!!!!

Date of Review:  May 2, 2005

This is a great entry level dSLR, with excellent battery life. The kit lens could be a little bit better, but for the price it can't be beat.Olympus Evolt E300 8MP Digital SLR with Zuiko 14-45mm f/3.5-5.6 Digital SLR Lens, Digital Cameras, Electronics
