Pentax Optio I-10 review Review
The 12.1-megapixel Optio I-10 is a handsome compact camera, with real retro appeal. Its picture quality isn't going to make anyone's head explode, but it offers a 5x wide-angle zoom, plenty of features to play around with, and the ability to shoot 720p movies Read more ...
PROSImpressive styling and finish, Useful expanded-dynamic-range options, Handy 5x wide-angle zoom range
CONSCrude-looking interface, Poor lens quality, Can't use the zoom or autofocus when shooting 720p movies
