Ej,

I received my 510 today! I got the 2-lens kit and a 70-300 zoom. All my research led me to believe that this will be the cat's meow for wildlife photography. IS, small kit lenses, all the goodies. Now as soon as I get my media, I'll be out snapping.

I've used Oly cameras for a long time. On my trip to Zim this year I took my old 2100UZ but I'm really looking forward to getting the 510 over there.

You should be in great shape with this camera. Try to get the 70-300 if you can find one; you'll need all the reach you can get.

I got mine from Doug at Cameraland. He's on here a lot, mostly in the optics forum. His price was as good as any other vendor and he had them in stock. They're good folks.
