The world�s smallest digital SLR does not disappoint. The Olympus E-420 packs professional features and performance into a remarkably small, lightweight and comfortable camera body. It�s obvious that Olympus�s designers thought this one through. The E-420 is well designed and user-friendly; its body is exceptionally comfortable; and the controls, menus and other settings are highly intuitive. It is a pleasure to use.
If I bought this camera, I would probably also buy the Olympus Zuiko 18-180mm lens. A lightweight, user-friendly digital SLR with a diminutive 36-360mm equivalent lens for under $1,000? I have to admit, it�s very tempting.
Who Should Buy It
The E-420 is an excellent choice for:
* Professional photographers who want a compact lightweight backup digital SLR- especially those who are already using Olympus lenses.
* Professionals for whom packing light is a top priority, such as extreme sports and travel photographers. Female pros in particular will appreciate the E-420�s comfortable size and weight.
* Advanced and serious intermediate photographers looking for digital SLR features, performance and image quality in a smaller, moderately priced package.
* Beginning and intermediate photographers who want to get serious about photography and need a camera they can grow into.
* Families with one serious photographer and a spouse or teens who also want to take great pictures without the intimidation of a big SLR.
This camera is not the best choice for:
* Hardcore pros who require the best possible performance, image quality, or a camera body that can stand up to lots of abuse.
* Beginning photographers intimidated by too many options.
* Anyone who just wants a simple, easy, inexpensive point-and-shoot camera.
