About a month ago I found a good deal on the Olympus eVolt E300 8MP SLR starter package and I bought it, being anxious to make the move into the SLR world. The Olympus kit came with 14-45mm and 40-150mm lenses for about $1100 total cost. It was the best deal I found anywhere after about a month of research.
Now I've heard lots of folks talking about the Canons and I realize that Canon is the market leader in digital photography. The Nikon D70 has been pretty widely knocked as being bad about producing noise, so I didn't consider it. Why is it that Olympus is not discussed? Most reviews I've read have been positive with no real negative ones. Is there some hidden drawback of which I'm not aware?
