| You're guaranteed frame-worthy photos thanks to the Optio S12's 12-megapixel sensor and its optical stabiliser! This ultra-compact camera is loaded with all the latest technologies, including an incredible sensitivity range going up to 3200 ISO, meaning you can take photos that are bright and packed with details, in all kinds of conditions.
Its 3x optical zoom is complemented by its 6x digital zoom, which has an intelligent zoom function so that photo quality isn't affected.
The Optio S12 is suited to most shooting conditions, because it has 19 pre-installed scene modes to adapt to the scene in question. It also has a number of different exposure modes, such as backlighting and sunset.
Meanwhile, the camera's 2.5" LCD screen has an anti-reflective coating and a 160° viewing angle, so it's easy to see, even in full sunlight.
The Optio S12's face-priority mode can detect 15 faces in a group photo, ensuring you capture all those beaming smiles on camera.
With the Optio S12, Pentax puts all of its expertise at your fingertips!
The Optio S12 is supplied here with a 4 GB SDHC memory card and a case. |
