The Z981 has a heck of a lot of zoom in that lens--26x, to be specific. It's very similar to last year's Z980, the most notable upgrades being that slightly enlarged zoom (up from 24x) and a slightly bigger sensor (14 megapixels, up from 12). Of course, those extra pixels will go to waste if the chip is the same, but we'll have to see how it performs. This has the potential to be one of the most solid models in the Kodak lineup this year, with some other attractive features like a slew of manual controls, 720p HD video, and a vertical shutter release and detachable vertical grip for portrait-oriented shots.
