Pentax Optio S5z prices and specs
The Pentax Optio S5z was released on May 11, 2005. For now the lowest price for the camera is 60.00.
The Pentax Optio S5z belongs to the category of point and shoot cameras. Its main benefit is a small size: the photographer can even put it in the pocket. The Optio S5z is equipped with various automatic modes but you won't shoot photographs of the same great quality in comparison to large sensor compact cameras.
The device can make photos at 5 megapixels max resolution. But for better image quality the more important thing is a sensor size. This camera has a 1/2.5' (5.744 x 4.308 mm) sensor which means that the model will take photos with a lower quality than cameras with bigger sensors but instead it has another advantage - the Optio S5z has small dimensions and weight. But if you want to make photos of the professional quality pay attention to Sony Alpha a99 II.
The Optio S5z has max shutter speed of 1/2000 sec. It is an average shutter speed which will be enough for taking action photos of a very good quality. The device can even shoot videos but the max resolution is not very good - 640 x 480.
The lens is fixed and you won't be able to change it. The lens provides weak 3x optical zoom.
