The new Pentax Optio 60 is a lightweight 6.0 megapixel resolution and 3x zoom lens built in a compact and stylish body. An easy-to-understand “Simple mode” lowers the learning curve of the Pentax Optio60. Set in this mode, users are free to concentrate on photography subjects while the Optio60 automatically selects optimal focus and exposure settings for scenes at hand. Even more, the Pentax Optio60 incorporates Manual exposure settings plus Aperture and Shutter priority modes to allow room for users to grow their photography skills.
The new 8.4 Megapixels Lumix DMC-LX1 introduced by Panasonic is the first digital camera to have a true 16:9 CCD sensor for taking wide aspect pictures. This compact camera also features 4x optical zoom, equivalent to 28 to 112 mm on a 35 mm camera. Like other cameras in the Lumix line, the LX1 features Panasonic’s MEGA Optical Image Stabilization system to prevent camera shakings. The LX1 also offers manual focus and exposure. A switch on the side of the lens barrel lets users quickly change the focus mode. Users can also choose between 16:9, 3:2, and 4:3 image mode. The 2.5" LCD monitor is perfect for reviewing still images, movies, and up to 25 thumbnail images for quick review. Copyright © 2004 Photo Camera Magazine - All rights reserved.
