Advantages: Lightweight Disadvantages: Uses AA Batteries
...The Pentax 50L has quite alot to offer a maximum of image quality with its 5 Megapixel resolution and several automatic and manual functions. This is a great camera for just the occasional family photo or sightseeing. The light-weight digital compact is equipped with a 2,5" LCD screen for perfect control of the images. The silver colored camera body is a real light weight with its 130g, the PentaxOptio 50.
PentaxOptio 50L digital camera does not need a power outlet because of the energy supply from AA-batteries. The 3x optical zoom with a focal length of around 32 - 96 mm (according KB-format). Numerous picture modes as well as automatic functions make the handling of the Optio50L a pure pleasure. So it is easy to take brilliant and unforgettable photos of parties, vacation or the everyday life, even for beginners. Photos, video...

Advantages: it's small and lightweight Disadvantages: everything else about it is very poor.
...This has to be one of the most abismal cameras I have ever owned. I originally had the PentaxOptio 60, but it went missing, and I bought the Optio E20 as it was recommended to me by the shop I went to, as being the model up from the PentaxOptio 60.
I take many photos of small animals, and I have to be honest and say that the Optio 60 was fabulous for this, however the Optio E20 is utterly useless. I can never get a decent picture with it. Everything is either blurred or grainy or bleached. Even static objects are dreadful. There really is nothing I like about this camera, and I would strongly advise anyone thinking of getting one to look elsewhere. The Optio 60 is a much much better choice.
here are some examples of the photos this camera has taken:

I have had this camera for a little over 2 months now and it is by far the best camera i have ever owned. I take it everywhere with me and i have captured some brilliant images on it; both still and video clips.
It is of a sleek and compact design,... more
When my Optio S4 was destroyed by my god-daughter I was distraught. The camera had been around the world with the wife and I (and bore the battle scars to prove it) and had never let us down, producing superb quality photos that the small size didn't... more
Digital cameras are getting cheaper and cheaper these days, and this snazzy machine fits nicely in the "affordable" end of the budget without being too cheap, or too flashy. Reasonably priced, and fantastic value considering the quality of the camera... more
I was given this camera as a gift, as my old camera is looking a bit dated compared to this, I love it personally, takes lovely photos and it does the job i need it to, i use it basically for family pictures and touristy type ones, i found it easy to use more
