$438.88
Overview
Your life is full of priceless, fleeting moments that you want to keep just the way you see and feel them. Preserve each moment with the E-520. With the E-520’s Live View, you can shoot your subject while viewing it on the LCD monitor, so it’s just like shooting with a compact camera. In addition to phase-difference detection AF, the E-520 incorporates a high speed Imager AF that offers easy 11-point multi-area autofocusing with Live View simply by half-pressing the shutter button. Face Detection AF automatically detects up to 8 faces at a time and adjusts focus appropriately. Accurate composition is assured by the monitor’s 100% field of view. The E-520 is equipped with a 2.7″ HyperCrystal II LCD monitor with high-definition 230,000-dot resolution, improved contrast ratio, and enhanced color reproduction capability. While shooting with Live View, framing-assist patterns or a histogram can be displayed on the LCD monitor to improve your picture composition and check exposure condition. The E-520 incorporates a Live MOS sensor with 10-Megapixels, Olympus’ original TruePic III image processing engine delivers improved imaging, gradation expression and color reproduction capabilities as well as minimized noise at high ISO setting. Olympus’ highly acclaimed dust reduction system employs a Supersonic Wave Filter in front of the image sensor, which vibrates at such high speed and with such great power that it removes even the most stubborn dust; dust that cannot be removed by just shaking the image sensor or by discharging the static electricity. Weight – 475 grams (body only) Requires use of an Olympus Zuiko lens or compatible for use of camera

Why a DSLR
When you have superzoom cams like the Panaonic FZ-28 with a zoom from 28-476mm for only $262 why would you go with a DSLR that will become obselete in a year?
I have a system film Nikon but in the flux of e cameras it seems to be almost a throw away to me.
Having said that I love Olympus products.............. .... Read more

5-star camera amongst 5-star competition
I've owned an E510 for over a year. Here are a few comments that might help you.
The E520 adds face detection, a vertical panning IS (image stabilization) mode, and an improved sensor with better noise and dynamic range. Conventional wisdom is that it is not worth upgrading an E510, and further that it is worth looking at E510s on markdown if you can find a good deal. The E520, though, is certainly improved.
There are no bad DSLRs any more. They are all really good, alt .... Read more

Great buy, great deal, great camera!!!!
I have done a long research before I decided to go ahead with this camera, I was thinking about Nikon, Canon (like most of us), Olympus (in the past I had p&s Camedia 4000 and it was excellent camera) and Pentax.
Finally I decided to buy this one and I am so very happy with the buy!!!
Photos are great and even if you are not advanced photographer you manage to take some good shots! It is easy to operate and relatively light. .... Read more

e520 vs, e510
Although I ended up buying the e510, the reasons might be of interest to people considering the e520 since both are still on the market. To be sure, these cameras have much in common. They both rate excellent image quality, resolution, color accuracy, very low to low noise from ISO 100 to 1600, and very high shadow detail. In addition, they are both of similar shape and easy to hold and handle. Further, like all Olympus DSLRs they are sturdy and have a low frequency of repair rate. .... Read more

Exceptional Camera at an Unbeatable price
If you're wanting to step-up from a point and shoot digital camera, but on the fence about a DSLR versus SLR-like camera, then you can purchase the Olympus E-520 with confidence. There is absolutely no other entry or mid-priced system on the market that has the feature set for the price that you can get the Olympus E-520 for. I carefully researched and compared systems that possessed the features important to my family: live view, image stabilization, optical/sensor quality, and finally, PRICE .... Read more
