Pentax Optio 330GS Digital Camera (Pentax-18102)

User Reviews for Pentax Optio 330GS Digital Camera (Pentax-18102)

  • Reviewed by: SFC

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Fits in my pants pocket: makes great pictures: simple to use have had no mechanical problems, downloading pictures is easy

    Weaknesses: eats up AA battries

    Overall Evaluation: I use the camera to record training excercises plus to take everyday pictures. I have a very good SLR camera that is seldom used. I installed a 128MB card and have never filled it up before downloading. The camera is tough as it went to Iraq with me and both of us survived. Other soldiers used other brands and were constantly trying to learn how to use their camera. I remember to carry several AA battries and enjoy turning out very fine picures.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Very easy to operate right out of the box. Many features that can be adjusted.

    Weaknesses: No camera bag. Power cord sold separately.

    Overall Evaluation: I was taking pictures within 30 minutes of opening the box. The features are pretty straight-forward and logical. There are several features that I haven't read how to use, but I wanted a point and shoot camera with a decent number of pixels. This seems to fit the requirement.
