Olympus SP-590UZ
This 12-megapixel camera is like a mini-dSLR, sans the interchangeable lens system. It comes with a 26mm ultra-wide-angle lens and has a 26x optical zoom lens to snap subjects that are far away. Besides manual exposure functions, it also offers RAW image capture for a dSLR-like experience when shooting.
