It's a big picture, but in reality the Optio 330 is about
half the size of how the image above will look on your screen. It measures
just 92 x 62 x 31 mm (3.6 x 2.4 x 1.2 in) and that makes it only just
bigger than Kyocera's tiny S3. The Optio 330 was first
announced back on the 29th of May, although we saw shots / leaks of
it early than that. It's an ultra-compact, steel cased, three megapixel,
three times optical zoom digital camera with it's own proprietary Lithium-Ion
rechargeable battery and a Compact Flash Type I slot.
The Optio 330 is clearly aimed as a pocketable 'take
anywhere' digital camera which can still deliver high resolution and a
usable 3x optical zoom. Just to add to the mix Pentax also recently revealed
the Optio 430, a four megapixel version of the Optio 330.
Review notes: This will be one of the first of our
new "concise review" style, still substantially more information
than you'll find elsewhere but more concise and to the point than our normal
in-depth reviews. We will reserve these short reviews for either pocket
sized and / or low featured digital cameras.

The Olympus OM-D E-M10 IV is an entry-level mirrorless camera that's feature-packed, and will appeal to beginners as well as more experienced users. Read about the ins and outs of this image-stabilized, low-priced camera here.
The Panasonic Lumix DC-G100 (G110 in some regions) is a mirrorless camera designed for vlogging. Its 20MP Four Thirds sensor is paired with clever tracking audio technology, but we have our reservations.
The GFX 100S fits most of the capabilities of the GFX 100 into a smaller and more affordable body. We've tested what the camera offers to see who it might make sense for.
The Sony Alpha 1 is Sony's flagship mirrorless camera for, well, just about anything. With a 50MP sensor, it gives you tons of resolution, but it also lets you fire off burst images at 30 fps for fast action sports. Add in 8K video capture and you have a really impressive package.
The DJI Air 2S is exactly what many drone enthusiasts have been asking for: a consumerdrone with a 1"-type camera sensor that's budget-friendly. Does it live up to the hype? In our opinion, yes.
