BenQ unveiled the BenQ C530, a new 5-megapixel camera with a 2.4" TFT LCD screen, upping its digital camera line-up. Touted to be affordable, the C530 comes in a new, ultra-compact design. The camera also provides 3X optical zoom.

The preview LCD offers a 480 x 234 pixel resolution offering better-than-before contrast. Some of the noteworthy features of the BenQ C530 (although they've been around in a several other cameras) include Shake-free and High ISO Portrait functions. The Shake-free function is useful in taking photos without distortion due to shaking of either the cameraman's hands or the subject being photographed. The High-ISO Portrait function, on the other hand, offers ISO between 800-1000 - allowing you to take photos even in dim light without the need for flash.

With the Auto Exposure Bracket, you can take 3 continuous photos with different exposure values, and decide on the ideal condition for you to get the best image quality. PictBridge support is another nicety on the BenQ C530.

Available in black, white, red and blue, more details about the BenQ C530 is available from BenQ's website.
