I have been using Pentax Optio digital cameras for the last 5 years, in fact my first purchase was the original 3.1 MP Optio S.

Good value, good quality I bought this on a slight whim. I had been looking at the Panasonic and Sonys in the same price range.

I bought this camera to carry in my purse instead of carrying around a camera bag all the time. This is great for work. You have to buy card befoe you can use it, but other than that the camera has an easy start and nice and compact. "Fast Shutter Speed". My first camera was a Penax K1000. Through the years I have upgraded and I have always found the Pentax brand to be reliable.

Very slow reaction time - not for people with kids Overall very disappointed and not unhappy that it recently died after an incident at a waterpark.

Poor foscusing and exposure Disappointed with this camera. Took the risk of owning another Pentax, believing they may have improved their products.
