What do you get when you cram 12Mp and great battery life into a very tiny, very durable, and sublimely easy-to-use camera? You get the Pentax Optio S12, a solid competitor for the upper echelons of the point-and-shoot category. The Pentax Optio S12...

Manufacturers have instead focused on introducing useful features like face detection and image stabilisation. So why has Pentax launched the 12-megapixel Optio S12? A good question, and one suspects that it’s simply a way of distinguishing the came...
Bottom line Some new products are a giant leap forward, but in the case of the Optio S12, it’s more a case of a tiny step forward. As with its predecessor, you’re getting a camera that will deliver a good performance almost every time you use it. If you a...

It may be a tiny critter, but the Pentax Optio S12 is capable of taking some beautiful pictures when the light is right. Its aimed at people after an ultraportable point-and-shoot camera, and its preset scene modes and effective automatic mode make it a cinch to use. With a weight of only 130 grams, the S12 wont hinder anyones mobility; you can easily slip it into your pocket and forget about it. Because of its small size it can be difficult to hold steady while pressing the shutter button b...

The Pentax Optio S12 is a cinch to use, fits comfortably into just about any pocket and looks as stylish as its predecessor, the Optio S10. Although it lacks some key functions (optical image stabilisation in particular, but also zoom in video mode, a...

REVIEW Pentaxs Optio S12 is a very compact 12-megapixel camera with terrific image quality—both still and video—and some nifty onboard editing options such as color filters and red-eye removal. One a minor caveat: This camera records video in DivX f...
