A Worthy Successor to the E-1Strengths: Fast AF with improved low-light performance, improved high ISO performance (compared to other Olympus models), great lens catalog and in-body IS works with Zuiko Digital and legacy lenses. Weakness: Not quite as ergonomically satisfying as the E-1 and certainly heavier, no focus assist lamp (uses built-in flash), probably a little over-priced. I am a photography enthusiast, not a professional, so please take my remarks accordingly. This camera more than meets my personal needs, and was a logical upgrade from the E-1. My primary frustration with the E-1 was its challenges in low-light focusing (even with fast lenses). To this end, the E-3 is a dramatic improvement. The body is comfortable in the hand, though slightly less so than the...

Great cameraStrengths: This camera has many features and is very fast. Weakness: None yet This camera has the fastest auto focus I have ever seen. It has many options for the focus. It also has dust reduction that works and is built like a tank. I used the camera in all weather conditions including subzero and it worked flawless.

Initial review from an Oly fanStrengths: Quick focus with new lens Weakness: Menus, functions, buttons A longtime Oly fan I had to buy a Nikon D200 a while back because Olympus did not have anything comparable in same price range. Now that the E-3 is out I got one. I am disappointed. Biggest headache is the single focus point procedure. In the Nikon if you want to be able to manually choose the one single focus point from the many available you just set it up in the menu and then, using your thumb...

Olympus E-3 (body only)
THE GOOD: Excellent photo quality; fast performance; solid, dust- and splash-proof body; flip-and-twist LCD; large, 100 percent coverage viewfinder; built-in wireless flash controller. THE BAD: Relatively low resolution for the price; smallish LCD, some clunky design aspects. THE BOTTOM LINE: Despite some interface quirks and a slightly awkward design, the Olympus E-3 fares quite well against its... Top

Olympus E-3
All in all the Olympus E-3 impressed greatly. It is a very well thought-out camera with emphasis on the user. That doesn't go for many other camera brands. I won't be surprised to see many E-1 users making the step to the Olympus E-3 after having waited all this time. The Olympus E-3 is a real photo-beast, meant for the real stuff, very impressive! Top

Camera Labs – Olympus E-3 review
The Olympus E-3 is the long-awaited new flagship of the Four Thirds standard. The E-3 doubles its predecessor's resolution to 10 Megapixels, features tough weather-proof construction, built-in image stabilisation, a fully-articulated screen with Live View, and of course the legendary SSWF anti-dust filter. Olympus has also addressed two concerns with the Four Thirds standard by equipping the E-3... Top

DCRP Review: Olympus E-3
The Olympus E-3, the flagship of Olympus' lineup, is an excellent camera which keeps up with the best midrange digital SLRs. The E-3 offers a very solid, all-weather body, sensor-shift image stabilization, dust reduction, full manual controls, live view on a rotating LCD, and all the expandability that you'd expect from a D-SLR. There are some downsides, including a clunky, confusing control... Top

Olympus E-3 Review
It's been a long time coming, but the Olympus E-3 professional DSLR camera is finally here. Successor to the popular but positively ancient E-1, the new E-3 certainly has a lot to live up to, not to mention fierce competition from the likes of Nikon, Canon, and Sony. The Olympus E-3 certainly has a number of very interesting features, including what Olympus claim is the world's fastest... Top

Impressive
Strengths: Autofocus / Build quality
Weakness: Still a bit Pricey
I'm not a pro, but I sure feel like one with the E-3 in hand. This was an upgrade from the E-300 and after 1 month I am very pleased. Auto focus is quick and accurate even in low light and without the new SWD lenses. So far I've used the 14-54 and the 50-200 on it and I'm very impressed with the pics. I'll update once I get a chance to use the 50 and the 7-14. After learning what needed to be...
