Notes on Olympus Evolt E-510 Digital SLR Camera/ Two ...- Olympus Evolt E-510 Digital SLR Camera/ Two Lens Kit with 14-42 mm & 40-150 mm Lens 2 GB CF Memory Card, Spare BLM-01 Lithium-Ion Rechargeable Battery, Slinger Camera System Bag
Reviewed well by Consumer Reports, in DVD tutorial, and general user comments as a full-featured, prosumer DSLR at a competitive price, all confirmed by my initial exploration on a field trip. The E-510 is a good bargain for a newbie photographer like myself and I would think it would satisfy the needs of a more experienced photohound looking for a better bang for their buck than they'd get from a Nikon or Canon model.

Summary for Olympus Evolt E-510 Digital SLR Camera/ Two ...- Good Deal
Notes on Olympus Evolt E-510 Digital SLR Camera/ Two ...- I bought this camera with the two lenses from a different vendor. After researching DSLR's I found this buy to be a good one. Seeing this ad with all the components makes me wish I'd waited a bit longer. This is a good deal for a great entry level digital slr. The camera is easy to use and takes excellent pics. I'd suggest getting the DVD that explains all the features. It's worth the $20. I believe it's available through Olympus.
I own several SLR's from professional to amateur, Canon, Minolta, etc. I waited for prices to come down to get into DSLR's. Olympus gave me a good reason. Consider Canon's and Nikon's offerings at nearly twice the price. Actually, a friend bought a Canon that went for $1400. I couldn't find a difference of $800 between the cameras or pictures it took.
The extra battery, disc and bag are definitely worth it. This is a good buy.
