Leaked just last month, Edgar Alvarez writes for Engadget about the official unveiling of the Sony Cybershot HX80, which offers:

30x optical zoom lens and a built-in, retractable OLED electronic viewfinder. Featuring similar looks as its RX100 relative, it also comes with a 18.2-megapixel Exmor R CMOS sensor, 5-axis image stabilization, 1080p video recording and a 3-inch (921,000-dot) LCD screen. There’s WiFi and NFC too, for transferring media to iOS and Android devices via the PlayMemories app.

More after the jump.

The Sony Cybershot HX80 is priced at $350 and will be released sometime in April. If you’re looking for a compact camera, that’s not a bad price. I’ll have a more in-depth look at the HX80 soon.

Would you purchase a compact camera ever again?
