The Olympus FE-230 makes a big impact with its slim-line stainless metal body that's just 16.5mm thin. Image quality is second to none thanks to the TruePic TURBO image processor and a resolution of 7.1 Megapixels. Furthermore, a 3x zoom lens provides good shooting flexibility and a big 2.5" LCD lets users frame and view shots with ease
