Pentax Optio WG-1 GPS

14.0 megapixel, Compact, 5.00x Zoom

Water, cold, dust, crush, and shockproof, the Pentax Optio WG-1 GPS will also record where you are when you shoot your pictures. But for all its toughness we were disappointed in the images except for those who only print 8x10 or smaller most of the time.

Released April 2011

$318

Pentax Optio WG-2

16.0 megapixel, Compact, 5.00x Zoom

If the Autobots had a digital camera, this would be it: Strikingly cool and playful, the Pentax WG-2 has some pretty unique features and takes pretty good pictures too.

Released March 2012

image of the Pentax X-5 digital camera

Pentax X-5

16.0 megapixel, EVF, 26.00x Zoom

The Pentax X-5 is a versatile, all-in-one superzoom camera with an impressive 26x optical zoom, offering 22-580mm equivalent range. Images with good lighting are surprisingly crisp, even at full tele, but the camera doesn't fare as well in low lighting and it's frustratingly slow to use. Despite those hiccups, the X-5 remains one of the best entry-level superzoom cameras we've tested.

Released September 2012

$197-280
