    I like what I see so far.

    Olympus E-410 EVOLT Hands-on Preview



    This successor to the E-400 is one of the world’s most compact D-SLRs with Live Preview. Photographers benefit from exceptional mobility and are not limited to only looking through the viewfinder when framing compositions – as is the case in most D-SLRs – but can frame their subject directly on the large 2.5”/6.4cm HyperCrystal LCD,

    to put it simple for europeans:
    E-410 is E-400 with new Matsushita nMOS panel (E-400 has Kodak CCD), Live View, new image processor and firmware.
    basically, if you have E-400, there's no need for change to E-410. The differences aren't really that big.

    Again, E-400 / E-410 users might be interested about upcoming Leica 40-150/3.5-5.6 OIS lens. with Optical Imgae Stabilization and Leica built quality, it should be quite good go-around lens for E-4x0. (but very expensive as well too. )


    E-510 with in body stabilization again is quite defferent beast. It's completely different body what E-500 used to be.

      ...and a 28-70 equiv. lens with F2.0 throughout its range.
      There's an Opera in my macbook.

        Yes, ZD 14-35mm F/2 with SWD (Supersonic Wave Drive aka. Supersonic focusing) was announced as well. but to be Top Pro lineup, it won't be cheap.
        Interesting enough, the ZD 50-200mm F2.8-3.5 SWD is rumoured to be a lot cheaper than it's predecessor, which costed whopping ~1000 Euros. (the new one is rumoured to be around 600-700 Euros.)
        Antoher interesting lens is ZD ED 12-60mm (24-120mm) F2.8-4.0 SWD by having quite optimum reach for multipurpose use.

        But the kit lens of E-410 is exactly same as what was the first lens in my kit... ZD 14-42mm F3,5-5,6 (which is a splendid piece of glass. I really love it. It's first lens since my old Rangefinder that I like as much as I like Rikenon 40/F2.8)
