PENTAX Optio W80 Digital Camera is Waterproof, Dustproof, Coldproof, and Shockproof
Here's a digital camera that you can take and use just about anywhere. The 12.1 megapixel PENTAX Optio W80 features a 2.5 inch LCD monitor with anti-reflective coating, a 5X internal optical zoom and a wide angle 28mm lens, but the best part is its rugged and durable features. The Optio W80 is waterproof, dustproof, coldproof, shockproof, and it has a Super Protect coating applied to the mineral crystal cover of the internal zoom lens which helps repel water, grime and finger marks. The camera withstands depths of up to 16 feet of water, and you can shoot underwater photos and video for up to two hours. Apparently, you can also drop this camera from up to 3.3 feet with no worry of it busting, and use it in sub-freezing temperatures of 14 degrees Fahrenheit.
Other Optio W80 features:
- Widescreen, HD movie capture that records resolutions up to 1280x720 pixels at full-speed 30 frames per second.
- Fast Face Detection technology that sees up to 32 faces in 0.03 seconds, with Smile Capture and Blink Detection, for perfect portrait shots.
- Pixel Track Shake Reduction (SR) that ensures sharp images in any lighting condition, without adding high ISO noise. Digital SR and Movie SR are also available.
- Close focusing, Super Macro mode that brings out the details in even the smallest subjects as close as 1 cm (less than one inch).
The Optio W80 will be available for your July vacation for $299.95.
