GE Cameras Higher Zoom 2009 - Upgraded Model

[Ahmad]

GE upgraded its still-young camera line with new models in each category that particularly improve zoom factors in addition to the usual megapixel counts. The X3 revamps GE's ultrazoom model with a 12X lens, a 12-megapixel sensor and a 2.7-inch preview LCD along with optical image stabilization. The E1276 in turn brings relatively long-range performance to compact cameras with 7X stabilized zoom, the same sensor depth as the X3 and a larger 3-inch display.



Adding to the E series, the E1255W and E1250TW both claim 12 megapixel sensors and 5X zoom, 28mm wide-angle lenses that go without stabilization; the E1250TW differs in adding a touchscreen display as well as direct HD video output for TVs.

The A series continues to be GE's most stratified line and is headed up by the A1250, a 12-megapixel, 5X zoom model with a 2.5-inch LCD. The A1150, A1050 (pictured) and A950 offer the same features with 11-, 10- and 9-megapixel image resolutions respectively.

One G series camera, the G3WP, is one of GE's first real waterproof cameras and can work at depths up to 9.8 feet. It scales back to 4X zoom and produces a 10-megapixel image with a 3-inch display for previews.
