pentax optio w10 reviewA review of the Pentax Optio W10 digital camera is available at DigitalCameraReview.

The Optio W10 is a compact 6 megapixel camera with a 2.5 inch LCD screen and a 3 times optical zoom.
The Optio W10’s most interesting feature is its waterproof camera body. You can take photos up to a depth of 5 feet, and because the W10 is sealed you don’t have to worry about sand and dirt getting into the camera if used on land.

The results of the review:
“The Pentax Optio W10 can withstand an accidental dunk in the water, a drop in the sand, or even some shallow snorkeling. Good image quality, good battery life, and easy operation make it a great performer, above water and below. This is a great camera for anyone who likes to spend time near water and take pictures.

Pros
- Waterproofing
- Good battery life
- Easy operation
- Excellent image quality

Cons
- LCD hard to see in bright conditions
- Slow shutter lag when focus lock is not achieved first”
