Buyers looking for a new digital camera that offers a rapid response at a reasonable price could consider Olympus’ E-510, a new review has suggested.

According to anandtech.com, the ten-megapixel digital SLR unit is an “impressive entry” into the manufacturer’s ranges and comes with a number of features that make it stand out from the crowd.

The website states that the E-510 has some flaws, but adds that pioneering technology such as Olympus’ own Live View body-integral image stabilisation make the unit one worth consideration.

It goes on to state that recent reviews have confirmed that the E-510 offers one of the “best kit lenses of any camera maker” and that “Olympus’ claim that lenses designed for digital produce better quality images is proving to be true”.

Earlier this month, Photography Review suggested that those who had waited for the release of Olympus’ E-3 model could have their patience rewarded as the camera should easily please any serious photographer.
