Pocket-Lint: The travel zoom compact is still proving popular and Olympus is building a raft of small-bodied, big-zoom, low-cost cameras for 2012. Setting sail in the wake of the SP-620UZ ‘Ultra Zoom’ we reviewed a few weeks back (16 megapixels and 21x optical zoom) comes the more slender SZ-14 ‘Super Zoom’.
Resembling a flattened version of its bridge camera-like forebear, this latest digital compact fields a 24x optical zoom and 14-megapixel resolution, derived from a 14.5MP 1/2.3-inch CCD sensor. It costs an extra £20, but the price tag remains a very affordable £199.
