Reviews
-
Pentax X70
Slow performance and photo quality concerns stop the otherwise very good Pentax X70 from being a winning superzoom camera.
-
NHL 10
While it isn't as big of a leap forward as last year's game, NHL 10 is still one fantastic hockey sim.
-
Pentax K-m
We like the K-m and the image quality it offers, but having to fumble over the inconsistent metering and white balance can be an issue for users not familiar with manual exposure controls.
-
Pentax K7
The K7 is a digital SLR from Pentax which features HD movie recording, as well as a 14.2 megapixel sensor and is weather, dust and freeze resistant.
-
Dell Inspiron Mini 10
The Dell Inspiron Mini 10 looks to be an improvement on the Mini 9, although the initial low resolution screen, lack of WWAN and three-cell battery option could hamper initial sales. We'd recommend waiting for the updated model coming later this year.
-
Pentax Optio E60
The Pentax Optio E60 is an inexpensive compact camera that doesn't require much expertise to use and produces good photos.
-
Pentax Optio M60
The cutesy styling of the M60 won't be to everyone's taste, but silver metal accents, 5x zoom and respectable image quality will make the Pentax attractive to adults too.
-
Pentax Optio S12
The smart Pentax Optio S12 looks and feels as classy and assured as any of the Pentax S series from recent years. The venerable chassis, though, doesn't really suit such a high-resolution sensor — the previous 10-megapixel S10 gives just as much usable detail.
