Have fun with that E410. It has the same sensor as the E-3, and I got a lot of good work out of the E-3.

Olympus really was trying to out-innovate the bigger guys, and they did, hands down.

Very impressive camera, and without any qualifiers like “for a discontinued system”. I wish I could get the long zoom for it, but they are rare and pricey when they appear.
I think the 4/3 format was an opportunity missed by most manufacturers as it has a nice balance between small and large. The mirrorless micro adaptation of course makes an excellent base for adapting all sorts of old glass too.
