Digital Photography Review: Kodak DX6490 - 10x zoom
Kodak has today announced the 10x optical zoom, 4 megapixel DX6490. This camera is Kodak's first foray into the big zoom SLR-like prosumer category, priced at $499 it's certainly competitive.

This looks like a pretty good camera that is about to come out in September. A friend of mine recently was looking for a new camera that costs about $500 - well, this one looks promising :-)

I have an Olympus 2100-UZ which has a 10x zoom on it. It's a great little camera. One feature that seems to be missing from newer high magnification cameras is image stabilization. This makes a world of difference in how your pictures turn out. This is something that has been missing from lower priced digital cameras for a while now.
