Full Aperture

I bought the Olympus Evolt E620 when I was on Amazon.co.uk a couple of weeks ago because I had heard that it was a fully featured SLR camera at the price of an entry level SLR. What I ended up finding out was that it is even better than advertised. There are so many features that I like on it and I continue to be amazed by how easy it is to use.

One thing that a lot of the SLR cameras lack is the ability to shoot high quality pictures in very high resolutions, but that is not a problem with the E620. I have taken quite a few poster sized pictures and they have all come out looking great. There is no loss in quality at all when I take large pictures, which is important to me because that is something that I am going to need to do a lot.

The wireless flash feature is one of the coolest things that I have ever seen on a camera because it ensures that each picture in low light conditions comes out as naturally as possible. I have used flash in the past, of course, but nothing like this. The quality stays perfect even in night photos, which is something that I had never seen from one of my cameras before.

Even though this doesn’t effect the pictures that I take in any way, I think they should have put a little bit more work into the LCD screen because the pictures are lot more crisp than they end up looking on the screen. At first, I thought that was what my pictures looked like, but luckily that is not the truth. The pictures are excellent, but you just can’t see all of the details on the LCD screen. That’s not enough to take points away, but I hope they make a better screen next time around.

As you could probably tell, I like this camera a lot and am finally having fun taking pictures and shooting videos again. I can’t imagine anyone not having fun with this camera because there are so many top notch features and the pictures are pro quality. This easily deserves five stars.
