Conclusion
|
The Olympus SH-25 MR is a more advanced version of the SH-21, bringing a few practical extras like a much better screen. Unfortunately, picture quality isn't quite up to scratch, with heavy smoothing in high-sensitivity shots and a lens that could give more consistently sharp results. You can pick up a better camera for just a bit of extra cash—or for about the same price if you can live without a GPS (e.g. Olympus SZ-31MR, Canon SX230 HS or even the Casio ZR200). |
The Canon PowerShot SX280 HS is a successful update of the SX260 HS, bringing Wi-Fi connectivity and the DIGIC 6 image processor for boosted responsiveness and improved picture quality. All in all, this is a very good superzoom compact. Still, competitors are already moving ahead, sometimes with better technology and a wider range of options. |

Cons
|
- Lens quality could be more consistent at wide-angle settings - Picture quality upwards of 800 ISO - The interface isn't fully touch-control (you still need to use arrow buttons in the menus, for example) |
- Some may not like the electronic pop-up flash mechanism - Battery life is a little tight (210 photos with GPS off) - Screen is a little outdated compared with some competitors (resolution could be higher, no touch-controls) - Limited Wi-Fi functionality |
