An Olympus styl-ish new zoom

Article Abstract:

The Olympus Infinity Stylus Zoom has a 35-70mm zoom lens with a f/4.5-6.9 aperture range. Images are sharp both in the center and at the edges. One drawback is the electronic flash retraction mechanism. If it is bumped the wrong way, it turns off the camera.
