Pentax Optio S7 Review

Review Summary
Reader Score: 6.33 (out of 10)
Review: "Small is the thing with the Pentax Optio S7, it packs a 7-megpaixel CCD sensor, a 2.5-inch LCD screen and a good set of other features into a case that's just 0.8 inches thick and has a clean, sparse design. So is it the perfect party or day-trip camera?

Priced at $349.95, the Optio S7 is in the middle of the pack for point-and-shoot cameras; there are cheaper ones, but there are also much more expensive ones. It represents a reasonable value for money, but certainly is not one of the stronger feature sets for the price. The camera does carry some interesting features and offers high resolution, but at a fairly high price."

Review: "The ergonomics of the Optio S7 are quite remarkable. Although very compact and with limited external controls, the Optio S7 offers a number of features and is eminently functional, as long as the Green button is used to access the Function menu. The function menu is flexible system, and has the effect of doubling the usefulness of the 4-way controller; so that when most compacts offer 4 functions to their controller in the capture modes, the Optio S7 can offer up to 8 immediately accessible camera settings.

Still, while noise can be seen in images scrutinized on a monitor at their full size, printing these same images out to standard photo print sizes, 4x6 or 5x7, eliminates most of the noise as the image size is reduced. In fact, the Optio S7's full resolution of 7-megapixel is able to produce a 10.24 x 7.68 inch print at 300 dpi; while a 7 x 5.25 inch print will generate a dpi of 438.8, ensuring a sharp image....
