What do you intend on shooting? Those are two radically different cameras.

 

[Sarmad]

I concentrate on shooting macro shot's, nature, landscapes, outdoor photography. I see Olympus because I'll be able to shoot in rain, water. However, these are some more choices. If someone could tell me which would be best for me?

Nikon Coolpix L110
Nikon Coolpix L120
Olympus SP-620UZ
Olympus SP-610
Olympus SP-810 UZ
Nikon Coolpix S6300
Samsung MV-800

I need, a camera with much aperture options, good optical zoom, 15x+ would be enough, Prefer Full body cameras. A camera which is possessing good options for outdoor photography.If you have some other company or camera in mind, Please inform me.

It looks like you may be in the $250 USD price range. You really have to identify what your priority will be...are the images for the internet, paper publication, large prints, etc. Then with the types of cameras you have listed, the range of functionality is not significant, so you can pick one that has the top two features you are looking for. Everyone has their favorite, but Canon and Nikon consistently reign as top digital cameras. To get everything you want in a camera body (no lens) will cost $1,000 USD, so my advice is get a camera in your price range - and go take some pictures!

Yes, I want the camera for internet, and digital images. Price range is about $320 USD. Looking for a camera in my budget, which would be enough for outdoor photography.

Please, just tell me the best camera you know under $300 USD.
