Pentax Optio S6 prices and specs
The Pentax Optio S6 was released on Aug 31, 2005 and is on sale in USA for 59.95
The Pentax Optio S6 belongs to the category of ultracompact cameras. Its main benefit is a very small size: the photographer can take it anywhere with himself easily. The camera has different automatic modes but you won't capture pictures of the same perfect quality in comparison to DSLR cameras.
The Pentax Optio S6 can take images at 6 megapixels highest resolution. But if you want to get better picture quality the more important specification is a sensor size. This model has a 1/2.5' (5.744 x 4.308 mm) sensor which means that the camera will take images with not so high quality as cameras with larger sensors but instead it has more portable size. And if you want to capture images of the professional quality pay attention to Leica Q (Typ 116).
The camera has max shutter speed of 1/2000 sec. It is an average shutter speed which will be enough for shooting action images of a very good quality. The Pentax Optio S6 can even capture videos but the max resolution is not too high - 640 x 480 / 320 x 240.
The lens is fixed and the camera owner won't be able to switch it. The lens has low 3x optical zoom.
