Advantages: Lightweight, easy to use!

Disadvantages: Limited amount of lenses

I've been very interesed in Digital SLR cameras for ages now, and held back with the hope they would come down in price. I didn't have to wait too long, PC World had an offer on these just before Christmas, I missed it, it was for the Olympus E410 with 2 extra lenses, which is just brilliant. So, I went down to my local PC World with every intention of buying one of these, but like I said, they were all gone - Doh!

But, to my delight and amazement they had one box tucked away with just one lens in it, the 17.5-45mm. I asked the sales person to price check if for me, and it came in at £149.97 - Bargain!!!!!

The camera: If your like me and a complete novice, this truely is a Brilliant Camera. The instruction booklet is great, it even gives you tips on how to shoot different styles of shot ie portrait etc....

I have since bought another lens for distance shots (telephoto) off ebay, and now all I want is a wide angle lens and I'm done. The camera is very lightweight and extremely user friendly. There are loads of hints and tips on the manual, so you'll soon be shooting the family portraits and holiday snaps till your heart's content!! GREAT CAMERA, fully recommend!

Summary: Great Camera for all ages and abilities
