The 18x zoom covers a range equivalent to 27mm to nearly 500mm, and in-built image stabilisation should help keep those long shots steady. Keen photographers like to fiddle with the shutter speed and aperture, and the P80's SLR-style Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority and Manual modes should make this straightforward....more

Rarer still that manufacturer seemingly doesn't realize what it's released on the world.As Asus was releasing the original Eee 701 the marketing machine hardly matched the commotion that followed as every rival manufacturer began falling over themselves to get their own low-cost, ultra-portable out of the factory door....more
