Pentax Optio RS1500 prices and specs
The Pentax Optio RS1500 was released on Mar 16, 2011. For today the lowest price for the camera is 253.92
The Pentax Optio RS1500 is a compact camera. Its main benefit is a small size: the photographer can even put it in the pocket. The camera is equipped with various automatic modes but you won't take photos of the same perfect quality in comparison to DSLR cameras.
The camera can make pictures at 14 megapixels max resolution. But for better picture quality the more important thing is a sensor size. This model has a 1/2.3' (6.17 x 4.55 mm) sensor which means that the camera will make pictures with a lower quality than cameras with bigger sensors but instead it has more portable size. And if you want to make pictures of the best quality check Sony Alpha a99 II.
The camera has max shutter speed of 1/1500 sec. It is not very fast shutter speed but anyway the photographer will be able to capture pictures of moving people. The camera owner will be able to produce HD videos that guarantees a satisfactory image quality.
The lens is fixed and the camera owner can't change it. The lens has 4x optical zoom.
The Pentax Optio RS1500 battery life will be enough to take about 260 pictures.
