Anyone else here have any love for Olympus? I know Canon and Nikon are the big boys when it comes to still photography so I purposely choose to get the Underdog Olympus (EVOLT E-500) who's pretty much trying to make their re-entry into the prosumer digital slr (if you call it that). I've been learning for a few months now. Having the newer 4/3 standard, lenses are quite expensive and I have to buy them almost brand new..

If you have cool pics or a flickr page, add me and i'll do the same. Thanks!

nice photos, love the colour :)

i also shoot with an E500 and i'm looking forward to see what OLY offers next week at PMA. I'm really starting to get paid jobs over here in Japan with my photography so i need to upgrade and get a backup system for any fashion/restaurant work.

I bought the 50mm Macro and haven't looked back since. I'm looking at trading in my kit lenses for the 14-54 as i never use the long zoom and i'm really interested in what Olympus will have to offer next.

My flickr account is http://www.flickr.com/photos/sentrosi/

i just set it up recently so there isn't much there to look at yet.

Thanks. Would love to see some of your photos. I want to visit Japan some day. You should have some great photos coming out of that place.

I love my 500. Great camera at a great price and the Zuiko lenses are great, just a little pricey. Here are a few of mine. Also check out myfourthirds, its a great site for 4/3 photography. Searh for my folder, my name is Chris Epperson.
