Compact cameras keep getting more and more compact and few do "compact-ness" better than Pentax.
With the Optio A10, Pentax has packed plenty of imaging potential into a solid, sleek, well-designed camera that's small enough to toss into a bag or slide into a coat pocket. Along with an 8.0-megapixel 1/1.8-inch CCD image sensor, the Pentax A10 has a 3x optical zoom, a 2.5-inch LCD with plenty of resolution, and a newly developed Shake Reduction System.
In keeping with its compact form factor -- less than an inch thick -- the A10 uses Pentax's Sliding Lens System technology which removes elements from the lens' optical path as it retracts to allow a slimmer profile when the camera is powered off. See our full review to see if the Pentax A10's potential has what it takes to capture your next adventure.
