Pentax launches Optio P80


HOYA CORPORATION PENTAX Imaging Systems Division is pleased to announce the launch of the PENTAX Optio P80 digital compact camera. Its ultra-slim, lightweight design allows it to be carried along anywhere, anytime — more like an accessory than a camera.

The new Optio P80 is the latest model of the popular Optio digital compact series, and features a compact, lightweight body. It provides a host of advanced features for the capture of brilliant, sharply focused portraits. These include: an upgraded version of the Face Recognition AF & AE function, which lets the photographer capture the subject’s face in optimum focus and exposure, even from diagonal angles and in different poses; a new Small Face filter, which helps produce a more attractive, better-proportioned subject image by making the face appear slightly smaller in relation to the body; and a more responsive version of the Auto-Tracking AF function, which helps keep an active subject in constant focus.

Other features
  • Vertical Snap mode, to capture vertical-position images with the same ease of operation as a mobile phone.
  • Auto Picture mode, to automatically select one of the eight shooting modes for the optimum result
  • A variety of digital filters, including the newly added Toy Camera, to add distinctive visual effects to recorded images
  • D-Range setting, to prevent whitewashed (overexposed) and blacked-out (underexposed) areas in images
  • Favorites function, to save reduced-size files of favorite images in the camera and recall them at will
  • Digital Wide mode, to create a panoramic, ultra-wide-angle picture (equivalent to an image taken with an approx. 20mm lens in the 35mm format) from two images
  • Frame composite function (with 90 frames stored in the camera) to shoot or compose images with decorative photo frames
  • Image recovery function, to recover accidentally erased images
