The E-520's in-body Mechanical Image Stabilization has three modes for increased versatility. The IS-1 mode adjusts the sensor on both the X and Y-axes to compensate for movement by the photographer, so images stay sharp even at slow shutter speeds. To capture the action of athletes or animals, in-body Mechanical Image Stabilization offers two specialized modes: IS-2 and IS-3. IS-2 is ideal for capturing a racecar flying down the track -- by panning and holding the camera horizontally you can dramatically portray the car’s high speed.

Pros: Sharp photos, affordable
Cons: Live View too slow on Auto Focus
I bought the E-520 as an upgrade to my E-500. I wanted to try out the Live View and have larger megapixel count. Now after months of usage, the Live View is never used because the Auto Focus is way too slow and eats the batteries up. However, the unit does take great pictures and the LCD screen is sharp! The unit fits better in my hand than the E-500. I do appreciate that Olympus used the same batteries and charger for the two units.
