| The Bottom Line | Aside from a debatably useful 26x zoom lens, there's little that's notable about the Olympus SP-590 UZ. | For the money, the Canon EOS Rebel T3i is a great choice for dSLR videographers--though the cheaper T2i can still suffice if you don't need the articulated LCD--and it's a solid choice for creative still shooters. But though the image quality and general shooting performance are top-notch, if you're upgrading to capture sports, kids, or pets, the T3i may not be able to keep up. | If you're after a wide and long lens and excellent photo quality, the Canon PowerShot SX40 HS is a standout. In features, design, and performance, though, it's a bit lacking. | The Olympus SP-600UZ is easy on your wallet for a megazoom, but its photos and performance require a lot of compromise. | If you care more about having a long lens at a low price than photo quality or manual controls, the Olympus SP-800UZ is an option. |
