This time last year Nikon were readying the Nikon Coolpix 800, a quick progression from the Coolpix 700, which in turn had taken the guts of the 950, made the body smaller, removed the swivel and added a fixed (in the case of the 700) and a 2x zoom lens (in the case of the 800). So it was fairly easy to predict that Nikon would do something similar this year. Obviously they've skipped the Coolpix 770 as it wouldn't be a huge seller... Instead they've gone straight for the 880 which is essentially the guts and imager from the 990 in a redesigned (fixed) case with a 2.5x optical zoom and some new features not found on the 990. This will be their main new digital product at Photokina 2000, Europe's biggest photography exhibition.

Saving photos has never been easier. With Sony's new MVC-CD200 Digital Still Camera, you can store more than 1, 000 VGA still images on a single CD-R compact disc. And that's not all. Save more than 90 minutes of MPEG video on the same CD, which is compatible with virtually any computer! Get great Mavica-quality images with the convenience of compact disc storage. For even greater flexibility, you can save the photos on a CD-RW disc, which can be erased and reused hundreds of times. The MVC-CD200 provides 2.0 Effective (2.1 Gross) MP resolution, a 3X optical zoom/6X digital zoom lens and a choice of three MPEG movie modes.
