We just had an opportunity to spend some hours with the new Pentax Optio MX camera, so we decided to get along and publish this first look. When we attended the PMA show in Las Vegas the Optio MX was suddenly unveiled. This strange looking compact digital camera reminds the veterans amongst us, of an ultra compact super 8 camera, but equipped with nowadays technique. The compact Optio MX camera is a digital camera combining film and video. The camera is equipped with a 1/2.7 inch CCD and offers 3.2 effective Megapixels, delivering a resolution of 2048x1536 pixels. This innovative, palm-sized Optio features a 10x optical zoom to capture still images and high resolution (VGA) full motion movies on MPEG4 format with zoom capability.
