The Pentax Optio S A Very Small Digital Camera With Some Very Large Problems

Date of Review:  Jun 6, 2003
The Bottom Line: The feature rich little Pentax Optio S is the smallest 3 megapixel with 3X optical zoom digital camera in the world.
Review: Despite more than half a century as a major player in the photo-optics world, Pentax is a relative unknown in the digital imaging arena. The company is probably best known for the K1000, one of the most popular and longest running 35mm camera models...

Optio S : That's not a mint in the Altoids tin! A curiously small camera.

Date of Review:  Apr 22, 2003

Review: Technically, I only had the Optio S between 1 to 2 weeks depending on when I finally place this review up (I started it 4/21/03). I recently went through a major selloff of many of my digital cameras keeping for my own personal use a Canon S400,...

OPTIO S: Room For Improvement

Date of Review:  Apr 25, 2003
The Bottom Line: Not recommended if it?s going to be your main camera. It's great for its portability but to me picture quality should always be the designer's highest priority.
Review: I ve had my OPTIO S for 2 weeks and here s what I find:

Great size that s why I bought it!

My main disappointment is picture quality. My wife has the Canon S230 and pictures from it are more vibrant and the color is truer. I have...
