      Pentax Optio Z10 (Black)

      Pros: The Pentax has a 7x optical zoom lens ; cute sliding lens cover design

      Cons: Slow between shots ; no optical or sensor-shift image stabilization

      Verdict: Pentax's Optio Z10 isn't quite as nice as the company's Optio S10, but its attractive price helps make up for its quirks and modest feature set.

      By Mark Goldstein

      Review summary: The Pentax Optio Z10 is a compact, slim digital camera that fits into the palm of your hand, measuring 94(W) x 58 (H) x 25.5mm (D) and weighing 145g with the battery and SD memory card. This is a ...

      Pentax Optio Z10 digital camera

      By Doug Harman

      Pros: Easy to use, Nice wide view screen, build and design, Good focus and metering performance, Nippy to use

      Cons: Noise at all ISOs, Pixel fringing, No "proper" image stabilisation or anti shake system

      Verdict: Image quality is okay but hampered by noise, unless this camera is discounted quickly, it is hard to see how it can compete.
