Olympus C-5060Z Announced !

Major changes are 4X zoom (limited WA), F2.8 ED Lens, Li-Ion battery, improved AF.

But from a scuba point of view an interesting feature is the claim of a significantly reduced shutter lag, claimed to be 0.4 sec including focussing. We will have to wait and see whether this claim is justified.

The shape is similar to the C-5050z, but not exactly the same. So will the PT-015 fit? I guess we just don't know yet.

It seems unlikely the PT-015 will fit:

5050 = 115x70x80 Dimensions

5060W = 116x87x65.6

Quite different.

The wide angle lens is exciting for Underwater though.

Can't see any mention of the slave flash mode which would be a step backwards though.
