Pentax Camera (A lot of info....)

Pentax Optio S55 Digital Camera

Pentax has included a 1/2.5-inch 5.36 total megapixel CCD and 3x optical zoom lens, equivalent to 35.6 - 107mm in 35mm format. the Optio S55 offers point-and-shoot consumers an economic, fairly nondescript alternative with some advanced features and some strong limitations. The camera is packaged in a stylized silver body and designed for ease of use. Marketed as a digital camera with "no experience required," Pentax has applied a large 2.5-inch LCD with a magnified-text setting for increasing visibility of on-screen menus and a "Help" function in the "Auto-select" mode to help guide less knowledgeable users through the photographic process. Cased in a 3.5 x 2.5 x 1.1-inch aluminum alloy frame, the Optio S55 extends a bit thicker than some of its direct competitors. This will provide more stability than many of the S55's counterparts, but sacrifices a bit of pocket-portability. combination of ease of use, solid build, and extra features to set it apart from the rest.
Battery (0.5) The Optio S55 eats batteries faster than a blue jay eats June bugs. In the course of testing the camera over two days, the S55 chewed through seven pairs of AA cells - SEVEN PAIRS! This is significantly worse than any other camera we have EVER tested. The camera takes two AAs, and it would be wise for the user to invest in NiMH (Nickel Metal Hydride) rechargeable batteries, for both economy and convenience. Rechargeables are cheaper in the long run, and they take more shots between recharges than alkalines take in their entire useful life.

Memory (3.5) The Optio S55 includes 11MB of internal memory. That will hold 3 images at its highest resolution and best quality, and only 15 at "Better" quality. Additional memory by way of an SD card or two, depending on the capacity, would be a must for nearly any user.
