Pentax Optio X90

(June 2010)
A megazoom, well featured, digital bridge camera, the Pentax Optio X90 possesses good specifications and at a very good price.
What’s good:
- Good wide angle at lower range of zoom
- Versatile zoom takes telephoto range up to a massive 676mm equivalent
- Fantastic flash range
What’s disappointing:
- Above average amounts of noise at all ISO settings
- Optical zoom can’t be used during video shooting
