Although I'd hardly call the Olympus Evolt E-330's performance subpar, taken as a whole, it is the weaker aspect of the system. Shooting performance is acceptable but far from best in class. From power-on to first shot takes about 1.7 seconds--longer than most recent dSLRs but hardly an eternity. This is understandable since the camera has two sensors and an LCD to initialize, unlike other models. Its shutter lag of about 0.5 second in good light nudges up to 0.7 second in dim light. Though it lacks an autofocus-assist lamp, if you pop the flash up, it will strobe enough illumination for the focusing system to get a lock; if you want to shoot with available light, you have to remember to turn the flash off while it's up.
