Dave tries out the world's most compact 10x optical zoom digital camera...
Well, "Ultra" it definitely is! Olympus has somehow managed to shoehorn a 10x telescoping zoom lens into a body that's nearly identical to that on their popular 2040/3040 series cameras. This is by *far* the most portable 10x zoom digicam out there, and is the most affordable as well, with an introductory list price of only $599. (!) If you've found yourself yearning for more telephoto in a portable package, this could be the camera for you. (If you frequently shoot distant subjects, a 10x zoom on a 2 megapixel camera is a *lot* more useful than 3x, 4x, or even 5x on a 3 megapixel.) Read the review for all the details!
