World's slimmest 6 megapixel camera

BenQ's new snapper uses a 3D-Rotating lens to cut down zoom time.

BenQ has been shouting about its new DC E600 camera, a 6 megapixel beauty that measures up slimmer than an anorexic giraffe. In fact, BenQ claim that it's the slimmest 6 megapixel snapper in the world.

Its lack of bulk is not the only talking point, though - the E600 also sports a 3D-Rotating "lens-eye" designed to shorten zoom in/out times and Panoramic Focus, a shooting mode that does away with the need to focus. It's all about time-saving with the BenQ, apparently. Other features include a 3x zoom and 2.5-inch LCD screen.

The E600 will be shown off at CeBIT later in the week, where we expect to get the pricing and availability low down.
