Olympus E-3 Review at DP Review

February 20, 2008 By Eric Reagan

DP Review has posted a full review of the 10 megapixel Olympus E-3 and generally praises the camera with their Highly Recommended status for the prosumer DSLR.

No camera is perfect, and whilst there are areas where the E-3 trails the competition slightly there are also other areas where it leads. And inevitably there are some types of photography it excels at, some it doesn’t: the live view, magnified manual focus and tilting screen make it a superb still life studio camera; the build quality and weather sealing make it perfect for shooting in challenging environments, be they dusty deserts or icy mountaintops.
