What remains is reality and the reality is positive. Although some features, such as the dynamic range could do with some improvement, and we know that the signal / noise ratios at high ISO could do better too, the Olympus E-420 did really well. The extremely compact FourThirds DSLR had some help from its predecessors, however, the improvements carried out in particular to the image sensor, leave...

The new Olympus E-420 takes over from its predecessor, the E-410, as the “World’s smallest DSLR camera”. Positioned as a digital SLR that compact camera owners will want to upgrade to, the E-420 now offers contrast detection autofocus in Live View mode, the same system as used on a point-and-shoot compact, with face detection also available. That’s not to say that the E420 is a basic DSLR...

It shares virtually the same design as its predecessor, the E-410, which makes it the World’s smallest and lightest DSLR. Fit the optional Zuiko Digital 25mm...
