No Movie Mode?

In reply to the previous reviewer, DSLRs do not have 'movie mode' functions. I recommend to that reviewer if he misses the movie mode, he should revert back to his digicam. I like the movie mode, and this is why I have kept my Canon Powershot S3IS. I use it for exactly that purpose.
The Olympus E-510 is a very good camera. Of course, as with all cameras, the results depend a great deal on the skill of the photogrpaher. I like the image stabilzation and the 10 megapixels. I find that with Is1 turned on, I can shoot all the way down to 1/20 second shutter speed and still get sharp pictures. I do not use the 'live view' function as I detect a delay with that feature. I never much liked that on my E-330. The image stabilization feature for all lenses is what sold me on this camera.

The image quality is excellent, but keep in mind the fact that I do not use the kit lens; I use the 14-54 lens, and this is a sharper lens than the included kit lens.
