The Oly bodies aren't actually small. The E-410/E-420 looks that way due to the lack of a grip, but it's within a couple MM in both other dimesnions from a Rebel XT/XTi and the lack of a grip makes handling inferior. The E-510 is similar in size to the K200D and A200 and the E-3 is similar in size to the K20D.
