  Review summary: The Pentax Optio W60 digital camera combines a ten megapixel CCD image sensor with a 5x optical zoom lens in a compact, pocket-friendly body designed to take whatever the elements deliver. Capable of being used underwater at depths of up to 13 feet ...

  Review summary: This 10-megapixel sweetheart with 5X zoom looks smart and shoots even smarter. Menus need improvement.
  
  Pros: Built for abuse, it's nearly indestructible. Button layout easy to operate, even underwater. Image quality is very pleasing. Fine balance of feature set and price.
  
  Cons: Menu icons a bit cartoonish. LCD could be brighter.
