Olympus introduced yesterday a few camera in Japan with the VG-145 and its 5x optical Zoom and the very stylish SZ-11 and its 20x optical zoom, but as you know in America everything has to stand out of the crowd in style and Olympus America just announced the SP-81UZ a another well design 14Mpix shooter that comes however with an amazing 36x optical zoom, the world's longest for a compact camera. If you put aside for a minute this gigantic 36x optical zoom (28-864mm), the SP-810UZ is also a very capable shooter with a nice 3" monitor, 720p video recording (better have a nice IS once shooting video at 36x) and even a 3D image mode.
