Olympus has announced the four megapixel C-4000Z. This camera is (yet)
another re-hash of the same body design which we first saw used back on
the C-2000Z. The C-4000Z appears to be based on the C-3020Z but with the
addition of a four megapixel sensor, TV output and an external flash connector.
Note that this camera does not have the fast F1.8 lens of its bigger brother
the C-4040Z, instead it has the slightly slower F2.8 (still respectable).
Expected UK price will be £449.99 inc VAT, available in August.
