Advantages: Great build quality, easy to use and good picture quality. Disadvantages: No image stabalisation and no wide angle capability in the lens.
As I am sure most Ciao members will now know, I am a professional photographer but as well as taking pictures I also hold photography seminars at my local camera club and over the last few years I have become somewhat of a target for sales persons asking me to try out their latest digital cameras and give talks and written reviews on them.
I figured a couple of years back if I was going to be testing out all these cameras and doing reviews anyway then I may as well be posting them on Ciao and Dooyoo and making some money for charity which as you well know is what I do now.
The latest camera to be handed to me is the Pentax Optio M60 and as you read on you will find that this little digital camera is a real breath of fresh air. For months now I have been handed very expensive digital point and shoot cameras that claim to be able ...

The first thing I will say about the Logitech AF Webcam is: This is more then a webcam!
Unfortunately with my Mrs not currently living in the same place as me and due to the fact that I knocked off and stood on my old webcam, it became time for me to buy a new one. Now my old webcam, a Logitech Zoom I bought back 4 year ago and the Camera served me very well! Now I am no worker for Logitech, nor am I biased towards them for any reason at all, but it seems that it's fair to say that they own the market when it comes to the world of Webcams.
Anyway, back to Logitech AF. Now I managed to get this for about £65, but you may pay more or less depending on where you get it from. Now I know that £65 is a lot to spend on a webcam, but for me, who uses it almost daily, I didn't feel it was so much, if of course, the camera was worth it ...
Advantages: Functionally very good at the price Disadvantages: Unfashionable
simply have to get yourself a digital camera. And rest assured, you don?t HAVE to get a computer to enjoy the quality ? many of this you can connect directly up to a printer to do your stuff.
Anyway, enough of the generic advert for digital cameras ? this review is about the Pentax Optio 550, so let?s get down to the detail.
First, the price ? Kelkoo via Ebuyer offers this beauty at £291.86 including £3.99 post and packing. Tesco online offers the same beast at a whopping £489, so please shop around for the best price, although Internet Cameras Direct - http://www.internetcamerasdirect.co.uk/Pentax-Optio-550-digital-camera-deals.htm?campaign=google&pentaxoptio550 - warns that the camera is discontinued. It?s very hard to be definitive, but the Pentax website seems to suggest that it?s still available, so perhaps that website has got ...
