A plea to Pentax
One other to consider - Fuji F200 EXR - large sensor (1/1.7) decent zoom range (28-140 equiv.) Manual control. Great reviews. No flash mount but a lot cheaper than the other options (about £160). Nice and small too. I did look at this when it came out last year and it was intriguing. However ther...

W80 what's the general opinion
The sensor in the W80 isn't great, the W60 is the better one of the two I believe the W90 is also decent. here is a review off the W90 The W60 and W80 taking on other waterproof cameras

Pentax X90
I went for a wander around Arley Hall today and decided to use the X90. It worked very well. It's always more difficult to guarantee spot on results with compacts and bridge cameras, certainly when compared with a DSLR. Most of this is due to the very small and light cameras being susceptible to ...

The Optio I-10
You'll find various threads here on the subject. In summary, the I-10 is a high quality compact that delivers nice sharp images with realistic colour. The SR is sensor-shift and works very well, much better than the software based solutions of some compacts. I carry one everywhere and with car...

The Optio I-10
The I-10 is the ideal compact to deliver the quality with. John, would you prefer the I-10 to the RS/LS 1000? I know it doesn't have sensor-shift but it's a stylish looking camera. There are some great deals to be had on this model at the moment.

The Optio I-10
The I-10 is slightly more substantial and I find it easier to keep steady. It also has the sensor shift SR which is a real advanatge. Camera shake is so easy to get with compacts. The RS1000 has a remarkably good lens but is a bit more basic than the I-10. On the other hand it's fun and it can de...

The Optio I-10
I generally use DSLRs or more advanced cameras, but, as I found it for €99, I confess I made a compulsive buying ;) The alleged reasons were that the tiny Samsung NV3 I always carry in my pocket was getting old ;) and lacked a true anti-shake feature. Here is a small rather pessimistic review of...

The Optio I-10
Assuming the Kenko camera pictures I've seen are representative of the final product (in terms of functionality rather than form), I do see one massive stumbling block. Such a spartan design would clearly aim the camera at either the enthusiast market, or the pro looking for a smaller body (i.e. ...

The Optio I-10
Potentially fair point re: the amount of money this will require but lets not start thinking that redesigning the "rock solid brick of camera" into something that people will actually spend money on is going to be cost-free, not to mention the cost of promoting an entirely new camera line to its tar...

Pentax W90 comments please
The colour reproduction is almost identical. The lenses are not quite the same - the I-10 I have is probably slightly better then the W90 I tested. There's not a lot in it though and these cameras both excel at close and medium distances. They are weaker at infinity, but considering their use it ...

Suggestions for a compact camera
Hi, I need a compact digital camera for the, er, wife. I am a dedicated Pentaxophile with a long string of SLRs and have been for decades. I did buy an RS1000 but this turned out to be a disaster. The flip lid over the battery/memory card compartment slides open with the minimal of pressure (i...

Pentax WG-1
Looks an interesting evolution of the W90: My only gripe would be the sensor. I can't help but think limiting these at something like 10MP makes more sense with regards noise, etc. I think the looks might divide opinion, but I love it!

Which Optio should I get for in my pocket
I think Sony TX5 is worth a look, some advanced features like HDR and uses a Sony Exmor CMOS sensor for slightly less terrible results than the usual compact. And it's watterproof! And of the current Pentaxes, i'd also go for the RZ10 - the models are definitely improving, but they need to get th...

Which Optio should I get for in my pocket
I wonder if the Q sensor and features are going to make an appearance on future Optios, or would that damage sales of the Q itself?
