Pentax Optio RZ18 prices and specs
The Pentax Optio RZ18 was released on Sep 12, 2011 and is sold in USA for 219.99
The Pentax Optio RZ18 belongs to the category of compact cameras. Its main advantage is a very small size: the photographer can take it anywhere with himself easily. The camera has various automatic modes but you won't shoot photos of the same perfect quality in comparison to DSLR cameras.
The device can take pictures at 16 megapixels max resolution. But if you want to get better picture quality the more important thing is a sensor size. The Optio RZ18 has a 1/2.33' (6.08 x 4.56 mm) sensor which means that the model will produce pictures with a lower quality than cameras with bigger sensors but instead it has another advantage - the Optio RZ18 has portable size. But if you want to capture pictures of the professional quality pay attention to Pentax K-1.
The camera has max shutter speed of 1/2000 sec. It is an average shutter speed that will be enough for making action pictures of a satisfactory quality. The camera owner will be able to record HD videos that guarantees a satisfactory image quality.
The lens is built into the device and you can't switch it. The lens provides amazing 18x optical zoom.
