Nikon D40 vs Olympus E-510?
I've been thinking about buying an Olympus E-510, but people have told me to get a Nikon D40 …. Why should we look Olympus has the characteristics stabalisation 10MP image, live view, filter dust reduction …….. etc. why people advise the d40 seriosly … I mean why give you better picture quality without all the advantages of Olympus
The E-510 is a great camera and two-lens kit is almost the same price as the 1-Nikon lens. He has a great set of features that competing companies are striving to achieve a. Olympus is clearly establishing the bar, but is not receiving due credit. Nikon name, however, has established itself as one of the "two major manufacturers of cameras." Your advertising NA is a little too aggressive. So naturally, you have some people screaming Nikon is better without giving any reason why. I mean the D40 is also stalled in the field of Olympus lenses as, if not more so. Some hardcore fans and photographers shoot the Four Thirds camera because the sensor more little is attributed to a greater amount of noise at higher ISO. In addition, the 4:3 aspect ratio does not respect the 3:2 ratio of day again film. In addition, some also introduce the relationship of crops such as Oly, but has some of the best glass around a bit expensive but negative. … while Oly handles all continue to churn out beautiful pictures. Both the D40 and 510-E are very good cameras. It is a silly game of fanboyism as I'm concerned. I like especially the contradiction that arises when professionals say that "it is the photographer, not the camera", but the party back to Olympus. Follow-up: @ Alligator: Innovation is what drives the technology. You can not say that they are mere tricks. If that is your ideology then built in meters, automatic diaphragm, AE, motors, autofocus, flash TTL wireless flash, and many other technological advances in the last 40 years is not nothing but "bells and whistles" that have no effect on image quality. And as you mentioned: almost all other brands may fit older lenses in too much the help of a $ 30 adapter, but you lose autofocus you have paid and, in the case of the new lenses, the ability to change the aperture.
