Olympus E-600
$600.00
Released November, 2009
The Pros:Affordable price. Great entry-level option - affordable price, 18-scene modes, etc... Same 12MP sensor, internal optical stabilization and articulating 2.7" display as the E-620.
The Cons:Does not accept the more common SD/SDHC flash memory. Buttons are not backlit like those on the E-620. Artificially restricted firmware to deferenciate this model from the upgraded E-620 - lacks two-shot multi exposure mode, aspect-ratio based crop mode.
