Pentax X70 prices and specs
The X70 was released on Mar 2, 2009. For today the lowest price for the device is 1,699.95.
The X70 belongs to the category of slr like bridge cameras. It means that the device is not so big as DSLR cameras but however takes great photographs and has different kinds of shooting options.
The Pentax X70 can make pictures at 12 megapixels highest resolution. But if you want to get better photo quality the more important thing is a sensor size. This camera has a 1/2.3' (6.17 x 4.55 mm) sensor which means that the model will produce pictures with not so high quality as cameras with larger sensors but instead it has another advantage - the X70 is small. And if you want to capture pictures of the best quality check Sony Alpha 7 II.
The camera has max shutter speed of 1/4000 sec. It is an average shutter speed that is rather good for taking action pictures of a very good quality. The owner of the X70 will be able to produce HD videos that guarantees a satisfactory image quality.
The lens is built into the Pentax X70 and you can't switch it. The lens provides great 24x optical zoom.
