Is the Olympus E20 any good for sports photography?

Mar 30, 2006

Have the chance to get my hands on an E-20 for around £150/175. I can't afford a Canon 350D as much as I'd like one!

I'm new to Digital SLRs and I'm wondering if this camera would be any good for taking Extreme sports photos ie. Skate, BMX and Snowboarding. Photos do not need to be multi shot so buffer speed isn't an issue and neither is the size of the images as all will be going on the web.

Your knowledge is much apreciated.
