camera is ok

Strengths: very nice design and the lack of protruding lens is quite nice. quick start up time.

Weakness: not as small as my older cameras that could fit in a tin. pictures are a little slow to save if you want to take more quickly. the remote control that i could use on my older cameras does not work.

overall very nice looking but not for power users, the pics are alright with the standard setting, for better pics you just need to tweek it until you find the best settings. cant complain about the price with the included rebate. i do wish it had the focus light that previous models had, it helps when taking pictures in dark environments but so far i have not had a single blurry picture.

worth the money you paid

Strengths: 7x Optical, 8 MP, price below $200.

I have been waiting for a camera like this. It is the best.

Strengths: 7X optical zoom in a small camera

Weakness: So far I have not found any weaknesses in this camera.

I do a lot of traveling and found most digital camera do not have the opt zoom needed to capture those wonderful sights in Europe. With the Pentax optio Z10 it has the powder of a 35mm camera yet it is compact for traveling and it fits perfectly in my purse.

Pentax Optio Z10 (Black)

THE GOOD: The Pentax has a 7x optical zoom lens; cute sliding lens cover design. THE BAD: Slow between shots; no optical or sensor-shift image stabilization. THE BOTTOM LINE: Pentaxs Optio Z10 isnt quite as nice as the companys Optio S10, but its attractive price helps make up for its quirks and modest feature set.
