Olympus Launches 4 New Digicams

Olympus today unveils four new FE-series point-and-shoot digital cameras. The FE-210, FE-230, FE-240 and FE-250 all feature a 2.5-inch LCD, built-in help guides, preset shooting modes and digital image stabilization. Bright Capture is also available for the first time in select FE-series cameras.

• FE-210: Built-in Help Guides, including a Shooting Guide, lets users choose the desired effect and the camera adjusts to those settings automatically.
• FE-230: The 0.6-inch super-slim design and durable metal body make this the most compact and portable member of the FE family. An optional underwater housing (PT-038) designed specifically for the FE-230 provides worry-free fun in the pool or ocean. Images can be captured when scuba diving down to a depth of approximately 130 feet (40 meters) below the surface.
• FE-240: A powerful 5x optical zoom in a super-slim body captures action at a distance without taking a step. This slim .79-inch camera features an all-metal body and is available in black as well as silver.
• FE-250: An 8.0-megapixel image sensor, super-high sensitivity (ISO 3200), and fast shutter speeds in a slim 0.8-inch body guarantee users bright, high-quality images even in low-light situations.
