I may have spoken too soon; it would appear the camera is not working with ANY of my batteries today, so either it is completely knackered or ALL of my batteries need charging - including the one that was in it!

... Oh, I forgot to mention... The E-520 is working again. Apparently it was just a duff battery. Yay!

Broken
The E-520 is dead. Long live the E-520.
After a mysterious fall from the kitchen counter my Olympus E-520 has ceased functioning as it should.
And now... £20.00 later... I have to wait to find out if the camera can be repaired. In the mean time I have to resort back to the E-500, which has a line of dead pixels and every frame will need cloning. Ho-hum.
Returning back to the E-500 has reminded me of some of the functions the E-520 has which I have gotten used to; auto rotate on playback; playback memory; speed to write to CF; speed of autofocus, and so on...

Frankenstein's Mushroom
It would appear my mushroom growing is not quite going to plan... Having followed the instructions on the box I have ended up with one monstrous mushroom... At least I think it is a mushroom...

E-520
Some of you may have noticed that I am now shooting with an E-520, rather than the older E-500 I was using before. This is partly due to my E-500 picking up a row of dead pixels since my wife ran over it with her car - I hasten to add it wasn't her fault; I had left my camera bag propped up against her rear passenger side wheel whilst I was putting the Rubester in the car and forgot to move it before getting in! And secondly, my mate Dave turned 40, and switched from Olympus to Nikon as a result (that's midlife crisis for you!). Needless to say I didn't hesitate to buy his hardly used body and kit lens (and filters, and remote shutter release, and odds and ends...) for a very small amount. In fact, I more or less robbed him. Sorry Dave.
There are a few differences between the two models I really like: Liveview, IS, review recall, continuous shooting, image size...
ps. I really did pay very little for it... Less than it would cost me to get the other camera fixed!
