Product Summary
Evolt E-410 (with ED 14-42mm f3.5/5.6 and ED 40-150mm f4.0/5.6 lenses)
price range: $759.99
Olympus' compact dSLR for newbies, the Evolt E-410, is a decent choice if you're looking to save space in your bag, but issues with its automatic exposure and white balance make it an unsatisfactory option as a first dSLR.
