      Pentax Optio P70 compact - 12 MPX plus 720p video

      By Mike Hanlon

      Review summary: January 6, 2009 Digital still image and video continue to converge with Pentax announcing the US$200 Optio P70 at CES. The ultra-slim P70 takes 12 megapixel still images and 720p video, sadly at just 15 FPS, but it's a start. There's a 4X optical zoom ...

      Verdict: There's also Advanced Face Recognition that tracks up to 32 faces in 0.03 seconds, and both Smile Capture that automatically releases the shutter when subjects smile, and Blink Detection to alert you if your subject's eyes are closed. Digital Shake ...

      Pentax Optio Z10 Digital Camera - Review - The Imaging Resource!

      By J. Allen Mullins with Shawn Barnett

      Review summary: The Pentax Optio Z10 features a Pentax-branded 7x optical zoom lens, the highest magnification among current Pentax compact digital cameras. Designed with a refraction lens system, the lens never protrudes from the camera while zooming. The Pentax Z10 ...

      Pros: Small, light ; 15 shooting modes ; Nice sliding lens cover ; Face recognition ; Long telephoto zoom for a small camera ; Good sharpness at wide angle and tele ; Easy menu navigation ; Good printed results

      Cons: Somewhat thick ; Cramped controls on back ; Slick and hard to hold ; Collects fingerprints ; Color hue is shifted ; High pincushion distortion at telephoto ; Digital Shake Reduction really isn't ; Small, low power flash ; Auto flash boosts ISO to 800 ...

      Verdict: Power for the Pentax Z10 comes from a proprietary lithium-ion rechargeable battery or optional AC adapter, and the camera stores images on SD/SDHC cards or 52MB of built-in memory. There's also USB 2.0 High-Speed computer connectivity and NTSC / PAL ...

      Pentax Optio Z10

      Review summary: This is a camera that's aimed at the casual snapper

      Pros: Solid build ; Easy to use

      Cons: A bit bulky for a compact ; Poor image quality ; Flawed autofocus

      Verdict: The Pentax engineers have produced a minor miracle in packing a 7x zoom into a pocket-sized body and what makes it more impressive is that it's a non-protruding type and silent in operation. It's not the smoothest zoom as it moves through the ...
