This one has 20x optical zoom compard to the 12x on the Optura 30.  Any ideas why it's so much less expensive?  Any glaring differences between the 2?

Don't know but in my camera shopping experience these huge pricing discrepancies are par for the course. Some of it is due to being last years model (with no appreciable difference), other times it's because they're refurbished, but most of the time I can't figure out why.
