      Review: Olympus E3

      By Tracey Capen

      Review summary: This big, heavy, rugged SLR camera has extensive advanced controls and fast burst-shooting speed, and can autofocus very quickly.

      Verdict: Like most DSLRs, though, the E3 provides speed and flexibility, and this camera offers them in spades. Tested against my now aging Canon 30D and the new Nikon D300, the E3 delivered lightning-quick auto-focusing, noticeably faster than either of the ...

      Olympus E-3 Review

      Review summary: In an attempt to lure the professional user away from Canon and Nikon, Olympus has launched this rugged DSLR that packs a healthy spec and strong on-paper performance

      Pros: Great build quality, impressive range of features and user control, fast autofocus, versatile rear LCD

      Cons: Price, some functions are over-complicated to access, random button layout, handling quirks

      Verdict: From the outset, Olympus has pitched the E-3 at the professional user. In my opinion, that's a mistake. Compared to the likes of the Nikon D3 and Canon EOS-1D MkIII, the E-3's not a pro spec model - it simply isn't in the same ballpark as these uber ...

      Olympus E-3 DSLR camera

      By Doug Harman

      Review summary: Does this deliver the semi-pro features you expect?

      Pros: Excellent image quality, good ergonomics and build, menu system, comprehensive feature set and customisability, super control panel, top plate display, responsive, good dust reduction system, great weather sealing

      Cons: Fastest focus rate only available with Olympus' Super Sonic Wave drive lenses, bulky for its class but particularly for a FourThirds Format camera! Cramped top plate buttons, not much headroom in RAW files, complex menus

      Verdict: Olympus' new flagship DSLR replaces the now very long in the tooth E-1 and bridges that gap for Olympus aficionados between enthusiast and professional shooting. It's big, heavy, and very capable but not without its flaws
