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.

When the Fujifilm X-T2 arrived, it was more than just a modest upgrade to the already impressive X-T1. While the new X-T3 hasn't changed the overall design of the camera, this model is way more than an upgrade; rather, it's a quantum leap.
The Movie Maker is a compact, motorized slider designed for phones, action cams and small mirrorless cameras. We think it's a fun little kit and a good value proposition for the cost, provided you can work around a few of its weak points.
