well last month my house was broken into and my e520 was taken along with the 2 lenses ...they left the extra battery, cord, charger and filters behind though..mind you it was teenagers...
other stuff went missing too..like the laptop..I did manage to get some stuff donated to me from my local camera club and I have raised enough money to buy myself a used olympus e300 with 4 lenses
14-45 ...then 3 OM lenses 75-150mm, 50mm and 35 mm...
the only 3 i've really tried so far are of course the 14-45, the 75-150 and I've even tried the 50 mm ..all work great..I have yet to try the 35 mm.

I will have to save up for the 40-150 mm lens and of course the 70-300...
I will post some photos shortly from this camera which I got 5 days ago..

the cougar shot was taken through bars at our local zoo...not your usual kitty shot I know..taken with the 75-150 manual focus

the eagle one I cheated and hopped over the fence and went straight up to the cage to get...taken again with the 75-150 mm and focused manually

So sorry to hear that....I got hit earlier this year after I left home to deploy to Iraq. I know what you went through. I wish you a happy recovery!
Sorry to hear about the loss of your camera. I have an e300 and love it. I recently upgraded to an e3, but my e300 took excellent photographs.
thanks guys and Dan so far I'm liking the results from the e300
How do you like the e300 in comparison to the e520? I have an e500 and an e520, and I haven't really noticed much of a difference between the two. I really want to upgrade to an e3 but need to pay down those blasted student loans and get a few more clients first. : )
Omg, that sounds terrible!!

I don't know what I'd do without my camera if it ever got stolen! So sorry to hear about your loss. :( x
