Next to the lens is a small, leatherette grip to hold onto when shooting or carrying the camera between shots. In fact it's a nice little camera to look at. On the white model that we had for review, the lens remains black, which is unusual but not bad looking. The first thing we thought of when we saw the Olympus VG-170 was "look at the size of that flash!" It dominates the front of the camera even more than the large lens barrel that houses the 5x optical zoom. Priced at just £99.95 / €100, the Olympus VG-170 is available in black, red and white. Other key features of the VG170 include 720p HD movies, a range of magic filters, 3D still images and a retro design. With a Guide Number of 8.8 it gives the range of the VG-170's flash around double of any comparable camera. The main addition to the VG-170 is the massive flash that sits in the top left corner above the lens. As part of the Smart series of cameras, the Olympus VG-170 is a dapper looking digital compact camera with a 14 megapixel CCD sensor, 5x optical zoom and a 3 inch LCD screen.
