    Pentax Optio W30 By Anonymous (31/12/2007)
    • Pros: Indestructabe
    • Cons: Struggles in complete Darkness

    Excellent Camera that i use while Caving. I just pop it in my pocket & don't worry about it.
    If using in complete Darkness it does struggle to Focus but on Firework setting it has a Four Second Exposure which is fine if you fire remote Flashes.
    It also works with the Firefox Slave unit to add fort those bigger Chambers. Read Full Review »
