Quick review

The good
Simultaneous RAW and JPEG capture, a Supersonic Wave filter, customisable exposure steps (1/3rd, 1/2 or 1EV steps), great noise reduction processing, well thought out Olympus Master software
The bad
USB 1.1 connectivity, rather odd metering glitch, startling underexposure issues for images with localised areas of brightness
Verdict
It offers a very respectable spec in an ugly, but very usable body design
