Pentax Digital Cameras

Arriving out of the factory of Hoya Corporations, Japan, Pentax Digital cameras is now an established brand after getting collaborated with Samsung Techwin in 2005.

The company has positioned a good range of digital cameras in the market, suitable for both beginners and professional photographers.  Models for amateurs are point and shoot type without calling for adjustments. These are released under Optio series of models and host a good number of models under the series. Most of these models are pocket type cameras excluding Optio W60, which is a compact model.
   
All of the models in Optio series of Pentax Digital cameras have between 7.41 and 10.37 megapixel lens (Optio W30 with least at 7.41 MP and Optio A30 with highest at 10.37 MP). The range of zooming varies from 3, 5 to 7x. Specific models in Optio series are A30, W30, W60, V20, Z10 and M40; other than these prominent models there are some more.  Capturing image with these models is just as easy as snapping images on the mobile phones.

Basic features of the cheapest Pentax Digital camera, A30 are 10 MP lenses with both manual and automatic control modes. The 3x zoom is suitably displayed on 2.5 inch LCD screen. There are conventional manual control features like focus and contrast control, and shutter and aperture control. This camera truly looks like well-known focus and shoot types. Its telescopic lens has an automatic lens cover, which functions automatically on switching on and off.  The feature of fully retractable barrel lens of this model of Pentax Digital cameras is perfect. It completely flushes with the body. Frankly speaking, the small body of A30 is well suited to this kind of flushing.

Model W60, the most pricy model in Pentax Digital camera, has 10 MP lens and capable of 5x zooming. It is housed on a sleek and stylish body, but compact in nature and fully water proof. This is a fully automatic camera with three different modes, but there is no manual mode for controls. W60 is quite a professional looking in its functioning abilities and generally the images are well received from its automatic functions.

The pictures are very clear with good contrast.
