Pentax Optio T10 6MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom

This is a great camera. My only complaint is that the big LCD screen is hard to see out in bright sunlight.

I am 14 years old, and this was my 4th digital camera. It was a sleek camera with an interesting touch display for a good price. I bought it and loved it. I loved editing the pictures in-camera. I got so many comments on the easy to use touch screen user interface and everyone always crowded around it. The lens, however, would sometimes stall when powering down, causing it to automatically power-down and forcing me to push the lens casing manually back into the device. Eventually, one day, I powered on, and the lens completely fell off! I was horrified. I sent it in, and Pentax wanted $278.00 to fix the camera. Which was more than I paid for it in the first place! Needless to say, I did not pay for the camera repairs, and I'm now looking for a new digital camera. It also seems I am not the only one to have experienced such problems. Almost every single review for the next generation, the Pentax Optio T20, mentions the faulty lens. Also, the screen washes out COMPLETELY in bright light. The battery also lasts approximately two hours on each charge. All said, I will never buy another Pentax item.

only one con i am not satisfied, it is that 3 inch touch screen, although it is big and touchable, brings a lot of fun and convenience to users, but this screen is very glary, on a shinny outdoor environment, it is very hard to see things on the screen, you almost won't be able to see anything, so actually when I took photos outdoor, I was just holding the camera and aimed to the direction where i wanted to take photos and pressed the button, no way to know if the camera aimed to the right thing. they should make this screen free of glare. other than that, all is fine.

This is the stinkiest and worst camera ever. We bought it to take graduation pics when I got my BA and it didn't work from the beginning. We thought it was us but is was not. The sensor didn't work from the factory. The store we bought it at (KITS in Seattle) gave us hell when we brought it back and didn't want to replace it. They sent it to the shop to fix and it came back the same way. Finally they gave us a new one but it had the same sensor problem too. We kept it for a while and it malfunctioned and took BAD pictures as well as horrible video. The camera just stopped working the other day. We have not gotten the $350 out of it that we spent and will get immense pleasure slamming it on the ground into a million pieces.
We went and got a Samsung for about $90 and it is better than the pentax ever was. Plus we will feel better having to throw away $90 rather than $350.
BUY THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK...the features are cool, if you can get them to work.
PLUS the store that sold it to us DOESN"T advertise this camera at all anymore...says a lot to us.
BEWARE!
