Olympus VG-160 Preview
Wow, the newly announced sub-$100 Olympus VG-160 is thin. 19.3mm thin to be exact. And yet, despite being able to fit in palm and pocket alike, the 160 has a host of advanced auto features to help photographers young and old find his or her way.A 14 megapixel CCD sensor captures light through a 5x optical zoom lens (35mm equivalent of 26-130mm). Review all your photos on the 3.0-inch LCD screen and then adjust everything using Olympus' Magic Art Filters; new filters like the two-toned Punk and the twinkly Sparkle and the painting-esc Watercolor join classics like Pop Art, Pin Hole, Drawing, Fish Eye, and Soft Focus.
Or, if you'd rather let your still images look as natural as possible, iAuto (Intelligent Auto) has you covered, choosing between 29 built-in scene modes to optimize your exposure settings. AF Tracking, Shadow Adjustment Technology, and Face Detection help track you subjects whether they be standing still or sprinting a full speed. Fully zoomed in shots will seem perfectly crisp thanks to the Digital Image Stabilization. And, like many modern cameras today, the VG0-160 also records HD movies (here, in 720p).
