Smallest camera I could find.

Date of Review:  Mar 31, 2003
The Bottom Line: Bottom line: This is a nice LITTLE camera. People with big hands may have problems. I love it so far.
Review: This has to the smallest camera made while still keeping excellent photo quality. I have had no problems yet, although I only have had it for over a week. It survived a spring break week in Daytona. Battery life seemed to last quite long even with a...

Stylish on the outside...

Date of Review:  Nov 6, 2003
The Bottom Line: This camera is so enticing because of its looks and great zoom, but the quality of the pictures is horrible.
Review: I got this camera last week to take pictures of my children at their halloween parties at school. I then returned it 5 days later. No matter how I took the pictures, either autofocus or manual focus, the camera did not take clear enough pictures. I...

Perfect Portability, Perfect Value

Date of Review:  Nov 13, 2004
The Bottom Line: Had this camera for over one year; has never let me down and gets the photos I want. Get a few extra batteries and you'll never be happier.
Review: This was the second digital camera I purchased. My first one was a Fujifilm 6800z Porsche design camera (see my review of it). I like the Fujifilm camera, however it is a slight bit bulky for simply carrying it around casually. This Pentax camera,...

Thumbs Down

Date of Review:  Jul 21, 2004
Review: A camera this expensive should take adequate pictures indoors. The images for pictures taken in natural outdoor light are generally very good. Those taken indoors or in poor light are dreadful. The brightness of the picture is terrible and the focus...

Service from Pentax Corp

Date of Review:  Aug 13, 2003
The Bottom Line: Don't buy. Pentax will not stand behind their product
Review: I purchased a Pentax Opio S on May 5,2003. Was pleased with size and quality of pictures, although pictures when using the zoom were not nearly as good. On Jul 5,2003 it just stopped working. Menu's would all operate and could be changed, top lcd...

The Bottom Line: This is a reliable product that performs well and has plenty of advanced features to use.
Review: **** Introduction ****
Looking back at some of my reviews you might think that I have a lot of camera's, well I do like my gadgets but I work in the photographic industry so it's usually me that gets saddled with the responsibility of buying...

Pentax Optio S

Date of Review:  Dec 29, 2003
The Bottom Line: Its light, easy to use and versatile.
Review: I got this new camera as a present from my husband for my birthday. Already an enthusiastic digital camera owner, I thought I didn't need a new one but this proved me wrong. The best little camera I have ever owned.

Pentax Optio S is the way to go....5*

Date of Review:  Nov 24, 2004
Review: Great little camera, I have had it a year & it really is all I had hoped. I bought & returned 3 other digital cameras before I found this one. I can put it in my pocket, the pictures(of my new grandson) are excellent & I have even made a VCD using...

Pentax Optio S - Perfect Camera for the Amateur

Date of Review:  May 2, 2003
The Bottom Line: The best ultra-compact digital camera on the market without a doubt, but with a feature set to compete with much bigger, more expensive cameras.
Review: The Pentax Optio S is probably one of the smallest and lightest cameras out on the market, but it's not short of features. I wont list them all here but in short it's got 3.2 megapixels, 3x optical zoom, 1.6inch LCD screen, voice recorder and a...

Ideal for those who just want to point and click

Date of Review:  Apr 14, 2004
The Bottom Line: Recommended for the person who just wants to take the camera out of the box and start shooting, pocketing it when done.
Review: I picked up the Pentax Optio S on sale after Christmas to replace my trusty Canon Digital Elph S100. While the Canon had its reign as the smallest digital camera (not counting those cheap cameras with the resolution of a webcam) the Pentax is...
