Olympus E-500 Review at DCViews

DCViews have published their review of the new 8 megapixel Olympus E-500 Digital SLR, the fully featured Digital SLR features and 2.5" screen and is available from £499 including Kit lens.

"All images showed excellent colour, good sharpness and a good dynamic range. There was no evidence of purple fringing and noise was on the same level as with other DSLRs. Low ISO settings were virtually noise free but some noise becomes present above 800ISO, although these images are still perfectly useable. Colour reproduction is very good with neutral rather than saturated colours. This can be tweaked in the menu where you can opt for muted colours for portraits or choose the "vivid" setting for landscapes for instance."
