“The Olympus Evolt E-500’s images are generally excellent, particularly at the lower ISO ratings. In most snapping conditions, our test photos showed nicely balanced colors, good sharpness, accurate automatic exposures, and no visible purple fringing around contrasty details.

Our test images were clean and free of noticeable noise up to ISO 400. A handful of colorful speckles show up in dark areas at ISO 800, but even at that setting the highlights show little noise. Images shot at ISO 1,600 are fairly noisy, although the noise-reduction feature makes it less noticeable–with the trade-off that snapping time is doubled.”

That’s what CNET have just said their Olympus EVOLT E-500 Review.

The EVOLT E-500 digital SLR has many of the same features as the E-300 but it has as more traditional (YAY!) body, a larger LCD display, new noise reduction software, and much more. The EVOLT E-500 is their third camera in their Four-thirds system, this camera could be their finest offering yet. The E-500 features an eight megapixel Kodak 4/3 Type CCD sensor.
