Leading those off are four new 14-megapixel FE Series cameras &#8212; the FE-5030, FE-4040, FE-4030, and FE-47 &#8212; which all pack either a 4x or 5x optical zoom, a 2.7-inch LCD, digital image stabilization (and added mechanical stabilization in the FE-4040), and a double-layered Crystal Shell finish in your choice of a range of colors. Those are complemented by the &micro;-5010, &micro;-7030, &micro;-7040, and &micro;-9010, which all pack the same 14 megapixels but expand your optical zoom options to 5x, 7x and 10x &#8212; plus some HD video recording on the &micro;-7030. Rounding things out all by its lonesome is the 12-megapixel &micro; Tough 3000, which packs a 3.6x wide angle zoom, a 2.7-inch LCD and, most importantly to live up to its name, some water-proofing, shock-proofing and freeze-proofing measures. Dive into the links below for the complete details, and look for the whole lot to be available in March.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.dpreview.com\/news\/1001\/10010702olyfe5030fe4040fe4030fe47.asp\">Read<\/a> &#8211; DP Review, Olympus FE Series<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.dpreview.com\/news\/1001\/10010703oly5010703070409010.asp\">Read<\/a> &#8211; DP Review, Olympus &micro;- Series<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.dpreview.com\/news\/1001\/10010704olytough3000.asp\">Read<\/a> &#8211; DP Review, Olympus &micro; Tough 3000<\/div>\n<div> <\/div>\n<div> <\/div>\n<div> <\/div>\n<div> <\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.engadget.com\/2010\/01\/07\/olympus-goes-point-and-shoot-crazy-with-nine-new-compact-cameras\/\">Olympus goes point-and-shoot crazy with nine new compact cameras<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.engadget.com\">Engadget<\/a> on Thu, 07 Jan 2010 11:02:00 EST.
