Digital Camera Review

May 11, 2005 - By James Murray
The amphibious Pentax OptioWP, released this year on January 4th at the International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, adds to the Pentax line of small digital cameras for the point-and-shoot user. The major marketing point for the OptioWP is its waterproof abilities - it's capable of shooting in up to five feet of water. As for more traditional specs, the Pentax OptioWP has a 1/2.5-inch 5 MP CCD, 3x optical zoom lens, and can shoot in both still and movie formats, with synchro or autonomous monaural audio recording. Some manual control settings are available (but certainly limited), including Manual Focus, EV Compensation, Flash, and ISO adjustments. This camera is currently retailing online for around $349.95 USD but may be found for less.
