Pentax Optio A40

Pentax Optio A40
Pentax Optio A40 - (Digital Cameras)

Score: 6.8

We associate Pentax compacts with cheery, child-like styling, but the top-of-the-range Optio A40 is striving to be taken rather more seriously. Optical image stabilisation, a 12-megapixel resolution, fast performance and excellent image quality all bolster its case -- it's still cute, though

We Like: Optical image stabilisation; excellent image quality

We Don't Like: Uninspiring specs; hard to take styling seriously

Judgement: With a high-end price tag but middling specs, the Pentax Optio A40 doesn't stand out. Picture quality is first-class, with optical image stabilisation and dynamic range adjustment looking interesting, but the toy-like styling isn't for us
