Last but not least we have the Olympus FE-170 and FE-180, a pair of ‘no-nonsense’ budget models with 6.0 million pixel CCDs, 3x zoom lenses and, in the case of the FE-180, a top sensitivity of ISO 1000. The other differences are minor, and to be honest inexplicable unless Olympus intends them to be sold through different channels.
