Pentax X90 review

The Pentax X90 is an easy-to-use superzoom that offers decent picture quality and plenty of features. It's good value for money too, although it does feel rather plasticky. Read more

The entry-level, 12.4-megapixel K-x digital SLR is zippy, delivers good photo quality and is one of the few cameras in its price range to offer 720p video-capture capability. It's not without its downsides, such as unreliable image stabilisation, but it's a flexible, budget dSLR that delivers Read more

Pentax Optio W80 review

The rugged, 12-megapixel Optio W80 is an attractive little beast that can withstand a good deal of physical punishment. It's over-reliant on its menu system, but it's a versatile snapper, offering a 5x wideangle zoom, a high-def movie mode and a sensitivity range that goes all the way up to ISO 6,400 Read more

Pentax K100D Super review

The Pentax K100D Super lives up to its name with its easy-to-use operation and well-saturated, colourful images. The 6-megapixel dSLR is great value and delivers similar results to some 10-megapixel competitors. For someone looking to switch from film to digital, this Super camera will ease the pain in transition Read more

Pentax Optio A30 review

An understated 10-megapixel compact, the Pentax Optio A30's cutesy menu system and fully automatic 'green mode' make this as user-friendly as lower-spec cameras in the Optio range. But with a high resolution and optical image stabilisation, this merits its higher price Read more

Pentax K100D review

Following 30 years of absence, Pentax has brought the K back. The K100D does a wonderful job of balancing the needs of amateur and experienced photographers. It doesn't have some of the more fancy features that you'll find on more expensive cameras, but for its price, the K-100D is a steal Read more

Pentax Optio S6 review

Pentax's slimmest offering, the Optio S6, is a well-designed digital camera that will please casual shooters with its ease of use and build quality. Though some photo-quality shortcomings and sluggish shooting mar its overall value, it's a good choice for anyone looking for a pocketable camera that produces decent snapshots and looks great while doing it Read more
