Olympus E-330 VS. Canon Rebel XT VS. Nikon D40 digital SLR camera ??… better??
What is the best camera of these three: * Olympus E-330 * * Canon Rebel XT Nikon D40?? Thanks
I love how fhotoace overthrew the Olympus E-330 before even weighing the pros and cons thereof. Nikonians You and your god, Ken Rockwell … is almost amusing. It is true that Olympus uses the Four Thirds system. The 4:3 aspect ratio is slightly different from the standard (But not "pro" badges that fotoace – aspect ratio is not something that defines the industry. If that were the case, you might as well tear down all the cameras framework is not too full, while you're at it.) 3:2 ratio of 35mm film. The Four Thirds System benefits: – Smaller, lighter cameras – Smaller, lighter lenses – lenses tailored specifically for digital SLR cameras = every corner sharpness and minimal distortion (abberation chromatic vignetting, lens distortion, etc.) Some of the benefits of E-330 on the other – two Live View modes – Articulate screen – Supersonic Wave Filter The E-330 offers two Live View modes, A and B. "B" is the most common that the mirror has to flip to achieve autofocus, while "A" provides continuous autofocus. This is a feature that even the D300 and D3 can not offer. The screen is very useful link with display in vivo. Another great thing about Olympus digital SLR is the SSWF that lets you take photos without having to worry a bit about nuisance dust motes. Can not say the same thing Nikon. Now some of the cons: – Target selection more expensive – not fared so well with higher ISO – Viewfinder Dim (a small percentage of light passing through Live Display "A") The best way to find the best camera for your needs is to go to a camera store to check out your options. Can sound cliché, but 10X speaks louder than any policy line of the camera name you'll hear. All three cameras are good at what they do. All cameras have their fanboys brands.
