Not wanting to be left out after Sony and Nikon announced their compact digital cameras this week, Pentax has been showing off its latest Optio cameras — the P80, E80 and waterproof WS80.
The Optio P80 features a 12.1-megapixel 4x optical zoom lens, a beefed up face recognition that claims to assess 32 faces in 0.03 seconds including those annoying individuals who insist on tilting their heads in photos, smile detection, high definition 720p recording, and a triple anti-shake system that works on both images and movies in normal and low-light conditions.
