This review is from: Pentax Optio MX 3.2MP Digital Camera with 10x Optical ZoomI was looking for a camera that I would be able to use for video and pictures, not that expensive but with good quality. I looked around and tested several cameras, some not so well known and others that are well known, but as soon as you go down in price the quality goes with it. I was not looking to spend 800-900 dollars for this type of camera, but I did not want an aiptek or mustek either. When I got this camera was like a dream come true. Small enough that I can carry it in my purse, good quality videos, good quality pictures and the price just right. It would be nice if it will have some kind of digital stabilizer, but I guess for that I can get a regular camcorder. Get a bigger sd card and wow you will do wonders with this camera.
This review is from: Pentax Optio MX 3.2MP Digital Camera with 10x Optical ZoomSmall, easy to operate, and fairly inexpensive if you look in the right places. The Pentax Optio MX is a good buy. However, be aware that the software that comes bundled with it will NOT work if you have installed Windows Media Player 10. It only works with Windows Media Player 9.0 or earlier. Camera controls are intuitive and easy to access but holding the camera steady is a bit tricky. The included 16 MB SD card is a joke but you can buy a 256 MB for about $20 and that will do the job. Although the manual advises that you buy a "fast" card, a regular card works great even while recording at best resolutions. Autofocus noise is a bit of a nuisance if you are taping in a relatively quiet setting (just turn the volume down). Overall, a great alternative to bulky low resolution camera/camcorders for $235 bucks!
This review is from: Pentax Optio MX 3.2MP Digital Camera with 10x Optical ZoomThis camera is great. The Zoom on it is worth the price alone. We went to the zoo using this camera and was able to take pictures of animals very far away with no problems at all. It's very easy to use even though it looked complicated at first. The video the camera takes is not bad either. The only problem I have with it, is you need a lot of light to take some good pictures so if your somewhat in the dark you will need to use the flash that is built in. Besides that the camera is awesome! A++
