Pentax Optio S30 prices and specs
The Pentax Optio S30 was released on Mar 11, 2004.
The Pentax Optio S30 is a compact camera. Its main advantage is a very small size: the photographer can take it anywhere with himself easily. The camera has different automatic modes but you won't make photos of the same great quality in comparison to DSLR cameras.
The camera can make pictures at 3 megapixels highest resolution. But if you want to get better picture quality the more important thing is a sensor size. This model has a 1/2.7' (5.312 x 3.984 mm) sensor which means that the camera will produce pictures with a lower quality than cameras with larger sensors but instead it has another advantage - the Optio S30 has small dimensions and weight. But if you want to make pictures of the best quality check Leica M Edition 60.
The camera has max shutter speed of 1/2000 sec. It is an average shutter speed that is rather good for taking action pictures of a very good quality. The camera can even produce videos but the max resolution is not very high - 320 x 240.
The lens is built into the camera and the camera owner won't be able to change it. The lens provides low 3x optical zoom.
