take apart pentax optio x
If this camera was new (as you said in your other thread), why take it apart when you could have taken it back? My experience with taking cameras apart is that you end up with a lot of very small fiddly parts which you either lose or cannot fit back into their proper places (fortunately this was ...

Adding frames from internet to E40
I've handled a (non Pentax) camera with these sorts of frames and they were stored in a folder on the memory card. If the Optio is the same, then when you connect the card to the computer (I'd recommend a card reader to save your batteries, plus they're dirt cheap these days) you'll see two folders...

recommendations?
The A30 would be nearest to fiting the bill. The user reviews of DPReview are reasonably good. However manaul control is still very limited. None of the current batch of Pentax compacts offers that (the last to offer it appears to be the Optio 60 back in 05) The A30 is a bit 'old' now (launc...

pentax optio E40 damaged screen problem
Hi Mick, Welcome to the forum. I have replaced the screen in an M20. I would imagine the the process is much the same. Firstly however a replacement screen was going to cost £39 + postage for a camera that only cost £49. I bought another broken camera (jammed lens) for £9 on ebay and set about t...

Adjusting focus
Could you please explain the following:- I have found out, that if I take at linse from one camera and mount in another camera, focus don't work anymore. As far as I know, Optio's don't have interchangeable lenses (linses?), so what exactly do you mean (if this isn't a wind up)? Regards,

Adjusting focus
Just what I wrote, I am opening the camera, take a linse from another camere and mount it in the first camera. I have one camera with a broken lense and one with another fault, but the lense is ok. When I do that, focus don't work, there must be a way to ajust the linse to the rest of the camera el...

Adjusting focus
Sorry, but I can't help any further. I understand now that you have two broken cameras and are trying to make one good one from the two bad ones. Maybe somebody else here knows more about the mechanics/electronics of Optio cameras. If there is, they will help, but I doubt you'll get help here....

Adjusting focus
Do you really mean that 'focus' doesn't work or is the lens not extending?

Adjusting focus
First sorry for my bad english!!! :oops: No the camera won't focus, the lens is extending, but will not become green and beep. I have found somthing abut the "hidden" menu in another forum, I will try that. Thanks to you all and have a nice day. Erik

W60 underwater macro and sunny day
Grabbed the W60 for a trip to the beach today. Here are some examples of underwater macro (about 2cm with flash) and a normal bright beach shot, again, with flash. It really isn't comfortable with anything but back lighting. It is bloody handy on the beach, just stuff it into your pocket, even in ...
