Olympus SP-800UZ

Pros: 2GB of built-in storage; one-touch movie recording; full, searchable user manual stored in camera. It is very accurate if you have a tripod and it records in HD VIDEO. Good lens, very user friendly. Very good price-tag for what it gives to the user.

Cons: Soft, noisy photos above ISO 200; long shutter lag; ineffective image stabilization; no electronic viewfinder; poor battery life.

Conclusion: 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. All and all, it’s a great piece of kit, and I have been using it to make youtube videos. (youtube.com/rvgilder)

Review: Klipsch Image S4i Earphones (Also Olympus PEN E-PL1 Video Test)

Some of the best In-Ear Headphones for the price ($99.95 USD). Cant go wrong with these bad boys, as they sound excellent with a nice, crisp overall sound with a very flat EQ. The flat EQ will allow the tremendous sound to carry over to all genres in your music library! Comes with some decent goodies, but maybe they could have included a couple more silicon tips (maybe even a set of foam tips). If you think these might be too fragile, I highly suggest going with the S5i Rugged model. Same great sound, much more durable hardware.
My Rating: 9.5/10

Also, how does the video quality look? This was my first video shot with the Olypmus PEN E-PL1 Micro Four-Thirds camera.
