Olympus SP-500Imaging-Resource have a preview of the new Olympus SP-500 – Olympus’ new ultra zoom camera, with a 6 megapixel sensor, and a 10x optical zoom lens:

“This has been a year of a return to quality design and execution for Olympus, and it shows again in the SP-500UZ. The Ultra Zoom line of cameras was remarkable when it debuted, offering surprisingly long zooms that were unsurpassed by any other digital camera. Over the years, the UZ line got smaller and smaller, and lost its large grip, which was a major feature of digicams of the day. Up to last year’s introduction of the C-765, they’d lost the ease of AA rechargeables as well; but the new SP-500UZ brings all of that back. It has more of the raw camera feel we’re used to getting from the company’s higher-end line, like the C-7070, yet it’s still small and light.”
