Pentax Optio 60
High resolution digital photography is simpler than ever with the new PENTAX Optio60 digital camera. An excellent choice for digital newcomers, the PENTAX Optio60 offers 6.0 megapixel resolution and a 3X zoom lens in a compact, lightweight, and stylish design.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FEATURES
Compact, Lightweight Design
Despite its powerful 3X optical zoom lens and 6.0 effective megapixel performance, the Optio60 boasts compact dimensions of just 3.6 x 2.4 x 1.1 inches, a weight of 4.6 ounces without battery and SD memory card, and an attractive, lustrous finish exterior.
Unique PENTAX Mode Dial
The broad range of Optio60 shooting modes are accessible on the easy-to-understand icons on the Mode dial located on the camera's upper panel. Mode choices include: Simple, Program, Picture mode (Night Scene, Landscape, Portrait and Sport modes). The Mode dial also offers greater control with settings such as Aperture-priority AE (Av), Shutter-priority AE (Tv) and Metered manual (M), as well as access to the Movie mode, which records movies with sound to the full capacity of the memory card. The innovative Simple mode automatically selects the best settings for the scene at hand. From the handy Utility mode, the Optio60 may be set in a Webcam mode to create broadcast live video links to distant family and friends.
Sharper Images With Stunning Color
Two high-quality aspherical lenses optimize the 6.0 effective megapixel performance and powerful 3X optical zoom lens of the Optio60.
3X Optical Zoom, 4X Digital Zoom
Composed of six groups of seven elements, two of which are aspherical, the Optio60 offers 3X optical zoom performance equivalent to a 36108mm lens in 35mm format. Combined with 4X digital zoom performance, the 3X optical zoom delivers 12X zoom capability.
Optical Viewfinder With Diopter Adjustment
With an optical viewfinder offering actual image zoom, the Optio60 makes composition easy and allows users to operate the camera without the LCD monitor on to help preserve battery life during composition. The camera also features diopter adjustment to assist in providing a clearer view.
AA Battery Compatibility
The Optio60 is compatible with widely available AA batteries (two alkaline or nickel hydride batteries). As a result, the Optio60 makes it easy to replenish power practically anywhere in the world.
Generous LCD Monitor
The generous 2.0 inch LCD offers features 130,000 pixels for a better view during image playback, selection and editing.
Control Sensitivity
A selection of Standard Output Sensitivity comprising 64, 100 and 200, as well as an auto setting, make it easy to adjust the Optio60 for shooting in different lighting intensities.
PictBridge Compatibility
The Optio 60 supports PictBridge, the highly convenient direct-print standard released by the CIPA (Camera and Imaging Products Association), which may eliminate the need for a computer during printing. Simply connect the Optio60 directly to a compatible printer via USB cable and enjoy the simplicity of producing photographs directly.
