Originally posted by Rhizo I am known to be the under dog user. Pentax and Olympus are my picks over Canon and Nikon. I owned the E620. It is a fantastic little body. I can honestly say the Zuiko glass is a lot better than Pentax. However, no matter how good a glass you have, the body will hunt at times when indoors. I rarely had this problem with my K10D. Hope this helps
Shot 300mm hand held (600mm on 35mm format) E620 w/ 70-300mm Zuiko Both can be had at roughly ~$650. Not a bad deal considering it is very light to carry over your standard APSC lens with equal range.

Two of my favorites with it:

I picked up mine for just over $200 off amazon. I don't know if they're still available around that price new (ah, the good ol' days of cheap lenses from all...) but there might be a couple over at the marketplace on fourthirdsphoto.
