Olympus E-420 DSLR

Digitalcamerareview.com has reviewed the new compact DLSR camera from Olympus, the E-420. Olympus claims that this is the world’s smallest DSLR so this should be an interesting camera for photographers looking for a “serious” camera that fit in their pocket.
Some camera features:
-10.0 megapixel sensor
-2.7″ LCD screen
-Live view
-Face detection and shadow adjustment technologies

Digitalcamerareview.com ends up giving the Olympus E-420 a pretty good review since you get most features that a DSLR has to offer in a very compact size. The reviewer even found the camera to be a bit small for his hands. The E-420 produces very good images, but a small con is that the camera doesn’t have image stabilization.
