Pentax Goes Water-Proof With The New Optio W20
We have a horde of waterproof cameras around us such as Fujifilm Quicksnap Marine, sexy wrist mounted camera, Sanyo Xacti HD1, Olympus Stylus 720 SW etc. Now, Pentax has joined the squad with their latest Optio W20 that is designed for underwater photography. Well, the thing that appeals to me is its form factor since it is packed in a sleek and dreary body design. It can survive easily upto a depth of 5 feet for 30 minutes incessantly. The another alluring feature is its new Blur Reduction High ISO mode and upgraded 7-megapixel camera to shoot crisp pictures. While Pentax has done proper justification with the Optio W20, I think, it should have been made shockproof too. Anyways, the Optio W20 will be out for sale in September 2006 with a price tag of around $300.
