Pentax X70
$400.00
Released January, 2009
The Pros:Much wider focal range than many competing products. Low-noise performance in high ISO ranges. Offers full manual controls despite not being a DSLR.
The Cons:Autofocus speed is noticeably slower than other typical cameras like this. Video quality is poor compared to many similar or cheaper cameras, lower framerate as well (15fps). Auto white balance produces odd results indoors, colours tend to be too yellow.
The Pentax X70 is a professional quality camera that is small in size. It has a 12 megapixel resolution and an excellent 24x zoom lens. The camera has an average 2.7" LCD screen to view the pictures on and comes with triple shake reduction technology to minimize camera shaking and image bluring.
