First, let me say how the Olympus name stands up in this 410 model. This unit is an upgrade of the 400 series, with an added mic and new processor. This has to be one of the best cameras on the market for the price paid. The pictures are ginormous... yes..and crystal clear too (especially with a tripod). Anyone who uses photoshop, builds webpages, or just wants to take good pictures, this is an amazing piece of equipment. This truly is a gem of the photography world...all i added was a 256 mb XD card, and I was clicking away. I have never been more satisfied with a purchase...Its just been great for me, and hopefully for you as well.
