The W30 has a standard set of picture resolution options: 7MP (3072 x 2304), 5MP (2592x1944), 4MP (2304x1728), 3MP (2048x1536), 2MP (1600x960), 1040x768, and 640 x 480. Users can also select image compression in the Quality Level menu. Options are Best (***), Better (**), and Good (*).
Picture Effects Mode (8.0)
One of the benefits of the Pentax Optio W30 is that users can have fun with their pictures without editing them on a computer screen. Using plenty, and we mean plenty, of built-in picture effects. The camera has the standard resize, crop, image rotate, red-eye correction modes, while adding some more unique effects.
Color effects in the camera are not just limited to black and white and sepia but include a rainbow of digital color filters. Users can also selectively change an image to black-and-white except for one colored object, such as a red rose against a black-and-white background.
Users can add a heart, flower, or cartoon bubble frame composite border to an image. Even more, the camera features built-in movie editing to capture a still photo or stitch video clips together.
