Review Summary

If you can get past its poor performance, the waterproof Pentax Optio W10 can take some pretty good shots where others can't even go.



More info

This advanced compact has a good range of shooting options to keep most shutterbugs occupied, but we think there is still room for improvement in some areas.

The GF1 is a very appealing choice for enthusiasts and users who wish to upgrade from a point-and-shoot.
