I’ve long been tempted to purchase a DSLR, but have held off for fear I’ll never use it given their lack of portability – you can’t hit the bars without looking like a total dweeb.  Announced last week, the Olympus PEN-1 Micro Four Thirds Interchangeable Lens Camera is now up for pre-order and is almost point and shoot small.   You can grab one sans lens for $749.99 or drop an extra $50 and walk with the body and a 14-42mm Zuiko Digital Zoom Lens.  Like I said, I’m tempted, but $800 is a whole lot to burn on a camera.  Expect the Pen-1 to ship in July.

Cameras these days can be added to just about any consumer electronic product.  After all, it not only does it add a useful feature to the device, but provides incentive for the user to purchase once again.  Case in point, the iPod camera rumor. But more often than not these camera can’t zoom, limiting their usefulness.  Enter the Nyko Zoom Case for the Nintendo DSi.  It provides up to 8x optical zoom and the lens itself can be detached while the case can remain on protecting the DSi from bumps and scratches.  No word on a release date or price.
