Polaroid X530 digital camera available in the UK

While they may have just stamped their name on the camera (offering no warranty or support), Polaroid's new X530 digital camera (which we was announced ages ago) has finally reached retail stores, and in the UK of all places. The X530 uses the highly anticipated Foveon X3 sensor, which captures red, blue, and green light in each individual pixel (rather than most digital cameras where a pixel only records one color), has a 2-inch LCD screen, 3x optical zoom, and uses Secure Digital flash memory. They list the X530 as having a resolution of 4.5 megapixels, but because of the way pixels get counted on a Foveon sensor some have argued that this is really just a 1.5 megapixel camera.
