Whatever else that’s said about the E-420 it’s hard to dispute the value on offer. Body-only options for the E-420 are currently retailing for around £330, while even the E-420’s double zoom kit – with the 14-42mm and 40-150mm lenses – can be found for around £480. As the price of the camera drops, we imagine this will be something potential bridge-camera purchasers would consider investing in, even if it means paying a little more and sacrificing a little of the focal range.
