The Pentax Optio S4 The little camera in the Altoids tin grows up

Date of Review:  Dec 9, 2003
The Bottom Line: The feature rich little Pentax Optio S4 is the world?s smallest 4 megapixel with 3X optical zoom digital camera
Review: Pentax is probably best known for the K1000 (one of the most popular 35mm SLR's ever), the Pentax 110 (the smallest SLR camera ever made), and for the durability and usability of its' work-horse medium format Pentax 67 camera. But Pentax never...

Super Camera - not for everyone though....

Date of Review:  May 25, 2004
The Bottom Line: Well worth the buy, despite fact that image quality is middling be better. Its ultra-portabilty takes camera usage to a different dimension.
Review: The Pentax Optio S4 is supposedly the smallest 4MP digital camera in the word. In the research I did before buying it, that seems to be the correct. The nearest competitors are the Casio Z4/Z40 (close but bigger) and the Canon S400 series (not even...
