Olympus goes fat and skinny with latest megazooms (Albuquerque Journal)

LAS VEGAS--Whether you like your megazooms slender or with a little something
to grab on to, one of Olympus' new models might make you happy.
The 16-megapixel SP-620UZ packs a 21x 25-525mm lens and a 3-inch LCD. It gets
its extra weight and size from the four AA-size batteries it uses for power.
It's pretty much the same camera as 2011's 610UZ, but with a wider lens and
more megapixels.
The 14-megapixel SZ-12 uses a lithium ion battery, so it's much smaller
despite actually having a longer 24x 25-600mm lens and the same size LCD as
the 620UZ. It is also very similar to its predecessor, the SZ-10, but with a
wider and longer lens.
Both will sell for $199.99 with the 620UZ available in January and the SZ-12
in March.
Neither of these are pocketable, though, so if you're looking for something a
little more slender, but still with a versatile lens, there's the VR-340. For
$149.99, this 16-megapixel camera gives you an ultrawide-angle 24mm lens with
a 10x zoom and a 3-inch LCD.
