    Pentax Optio SVi

This compact digital camera is a real contender amongst its peers. An excelent choice at an unbelievable price.

Firstly, its 5 megapixel, more than enough to print out an A4 picture with no blockiness or rough edges.
Secondly, this camera has a five times optical zoom. That may not sound impressive, but when one sees the size of the camera it becomes a whole different matter. Distant pictures become close and sharp, quickly and efficiently.

This is a small camera which is easy to use and takes excellent pictures in all conditions. The only slight blemish is the video mode, which can appear blocky when filming in zoom mode. Another small niggle its that its lens does not retreat into the body of the camera when the user is looking at their images on it. These are minor things and should not stop people from purchasing this cheap, excellent camera.

    Hey there. Sounds like a good camera. You will need a bit more info to get higher ratings but good start there! Cheers, Dan.

    Hi and welcome! That was an interesting first review but all too short to warrant a higher rating. You really need to add more information. Nonetheless, what you've written is good and will prove helpful. How much did you pay for it? Tony
