  We have measured the two-dimensional kinematics and line-strength
distributions of 72 representative nearby early-type galaxies, out to
approximately one effective radius, with our panoramic integral-field
spectrograph SAURON. The resulting maps reveal a rich variety in kinematical
structures and linestrength distributions, indicating that early-type galaxies
are more complex systems than often assumed. We are building detailed dynamical
models for these galaxies, to derive their intrinsic shape and dynamical
structure, and to determine the mass of the supermassive central black hole.
Here we focus on two examples, the compact elliptical M32 and the E3 galaxy
NGC4365. These objects represent two extreme cases: M32 has very regular
kinematics which can be represented accurately by an axisymmetric model in
which all stars rotate around the short axis, while NGC4365 is a triaxial
galaxy with a prominent kinematically decoupled core, with an inner core that
rotates about an axis that is nearly perpendicular to the rotation axis of the
main body of the galaxy. Our dynamical models for these objects demonstrate
that two-dimensional observations are essential for deriving the intrinsic
orbital structure and dark matter content of galaxies.
