The OlympusFE-240 is another 7.1 megapixel model in Olympus’ latest line-up of four digital cameras in the FE line. This one distinguishes itself from it’s cheaper sibling, the FE-230, by adding a 5x optical zoom. The FE-240 also has a 2.5 inch LCD. The Olympus FE line is well-suited to entry level digital photographers, with well-built cameras and plenty of easy to use features, like a built-in Guide system.
If you like the FE-240, but want a slightly better resolution LCD and an additional megapixel of resolution, you can pay just a bit more for the Olympus FE-250. However, the FE-250 doesn’t have the 5x optical zoom.
