I am in the market for a used DSLR and am stuck between the Canon Rebel XTI and the Olympus Evolt E-410. I am also looking at the Evolt E-510.
Both are about the same price and look like good cameras.The Evolt has live view, but that's not a big deal to me. Besides that, the features seem exactly the same.
What I am interested in is lens compatibility. Obviously the Canon will have more lenses available, but as far as backward compatibility goes, which is better? I know old Canon lenses will not work with the new EF mount, but will old Olympus lenses work with the Evolt? There are a lot of nice looking used lenses for Olympus cameras out there under $100.
