Olympus Camedia E-20N 5 Megapixel Digital SLR Camera...Strengths: Heavy, substantial, aluminum construction, excellent feel and balance, superb, fast lens, full manual control, fast AF, strong onboard flash, accepts both SM and CF cards, incredible image quality. Weakness: Weak AF in low-light, AF will confirm though OOF, slow write times, small buffer, big power consumer. Excellent digital for first time SLR type buyer. Incredible build quality, very substantial, built like a tank. Great ergonomics, most used controls placed ON the camera instead of hidden in menus, awesome lens quality, though non-interchangeable, pixel mapping capability, can use CF and SM simultaneously, IBM MD compatible, extremely high resolution and detail though a bit noisier than the D30....

Olympus Camedia E-20N 5 Megapixel Digital SLR Camera...Strengths: Professional Camera at a prosumer price Weakness: some noise at higher ISO settings. This is the digital camera I have been waiting for. My last camera was the Olympus C-2500-L. I bought it based upon a review that went something like this : "this is a $5000 Camera for $1400". Olympus has done it again. The E20N is the best camera you can buy without spending $4000. The E20N is a MACHINE. Do not waste your money on a thousand dollar Nikon or Sony. Unlike the Nikon the E20N is a...

Olympus Camedia E-20N 5 Megapixel Digital SLR Camera...Strengths: Strong body, easy to use, feels profesional, very high quality pictures, fully manual. Weakness: Smart media card too small. Only two pictures uncompressed in the 32 mb card. If you are looking for a high end digital camera and also want to save 2,000 or 3,000, then this is it. For what it is is a low priced camera.

Olympus Camedia E-20N 5 Megapixel Digital SLR Camera...Strengths: Fabulous camera, lots of bells and whistles, definately a PRO model, good feel, good controls, total flexability. Feels professional and works the same way. Weakness: See above, this is not a camera for anyone who isn't serious about their photography. The camera is large and heavy, all part of the commercial build. When you're ready to step up to a professional grade camera this is one to get. The total control of the picture process by the photographer is awesome. The camera is quick, SLR "real" view through the viewfinder (not an LCD with a "lag", and the wide array of accessories makes this a good buy. Its expensive but if you're a heavy user its worth the price.

Olympus Camedia E-20N 5 Megapixel Digital SLR Camera...Strengths: True 5 megapixel images; metal case; placement of feature buttons. Weakness: Watch where you put your thumb! If it ends up on the lcd screen, you're screwed! Eats up batteries quickly. A good choice for a 5 megapixel camera. The frame is substantial. It's a heavy camera at 37 oz. I recommend getting filters as well. Rechargeable AA batteries are a must. Extra-length warranty is available from Olympus.

Olympus Camedia E-20N 5 Megapixel Digital SLR Camera...Strengths: TTL format is much better than the usual rangefinder digital. It even has a digitized sound of a shutter mechanism. Weakness: Finnicky camera. Does not want to recognize flash card and needs to be reracked between power downs. Even with maximum resolution, the images are so-so quality. Individual shots can't be deleted. I really dislike this camera for several reasons. The menu is perplexing and obtuse. The active LCD menu on top of the camera has tiny symbols and fonts that are very hard to read and interpret. I had to do a shoot early in the morning...the camera was cold from being in the a/c all night. The humidity was high which caused some condensation on the interior of the lense. It took 45 minutes aiming...

Olympus Camedia E-20N 5 Megapixel Digital SLR Camera...
Strengths: Durable construction; good placement of controls; high degree of manual control/overrides
Weakness: AF weak in low light; power hungry; OEM accessories are overpriced: hopefully aftermarket options will soon be available. I'd like to see an option where I could manually clear out the buffer.
I'm a dyed-in-wool film camera old timer, but got such a deal on my E20N I took the plunge and I'm glad I did! I'm truly impressed. So much so, that on a recent trip to Vegas, the E20N is the only camera I took. The night metering of the Vegas Lights was right on. While I did use the aperture priority and shutter priority modes, I found I could leave it on PROGRAM and get great results. Random...
