BenQ E600 Announced

BenQ have announced the new E600, a 6 megapixel digital camera with a 2.5" screen, a 3x optical zoom lens, and MPEG4 video. It's basically an updated version of the Olympus FE-5500. Naturally BenQ are hyping up the funky lens design that doesn't seem to do anything special, other than look different:

"Sliding lens with rotating Lens-Eye design - The 2D-Rotating “Lens-Eye” special design make the DC E600 a unique model within the BenQ Digital camera product line featuring a top-tier image quality. The PF mode (Panoramic Focus) also supports you to get excellent results."

"What else do you expect from a digital camera? BenQ`s exclusive user interface makes the E600 the ideal companion. A 2.5” high resolution LTPS LCD screen and VGA movie recording at 30fps with AVI (MPEG-4) format ensure comfortable viewing and super smooth movie clips. Additionally the 6 MP high resolution and 3x optical zoom ensure the best quality and sizeable printing up to B4 size." (via DCViews)
