Olympus E30 Camera
I have not had much experience with Olympus cameras but truth be told, they are a significant player in the SLR camera category alongside with top notch brands like Nikon & Canon. It was only fair to give it a review when I had a chance to play around with the Olympus E-30 which happens to be the newest addition within the Olympus E-System lineup.
Competing features such a 12.3 megapixel, a solid body to match and positioning as a mid-level model, this camera engraves the ability for anyone intending to express visual creativity through captured moments, regardless of experience. Simply being, it was an easy pick up and go, because of its variety of new features, allowing you to position pictures in grain filled settings, sepia overtones to other extremes, in terms of colors.

This will give you a quick overview on the Olympus E30 Camera and I'll also integrate my personal user experience that will help serve you better when considering whether the Olympus E30 Camera is up your alley. First up, I am impressed with the excellent out-of-camera JPEG results with good Dynamic Range, pleasing color and subtle tonality and that marks a quality that is much desired for any user today. The bright clear viewfinder is another compliment to picture quality as it far better than most Four Thirds cameras. The kit lens didn't disappoint because of its solid build quality and excellent handling, sturdy enough, a well thought through dynamics when developing the camera. It has a decent battery life to boot with easy to use controls with a range of variety color tuning features that makes it easy for anyone to handle.
However, during high ISO situations, the Olympus Camera E30 doesn't compare well to its competitors. Unless, you're big on high ISO, I wouldn't worry to much because it's a still a decent camera and you can definitely stretch this new baby with its multi-varied functions.
I think after all, that is the positioning that Olympus is trying to achieve, a camera with a whole range of possibilities and in this regard, they have not disappointed. Enjoy the technology behind the Olympus E30.
