Pentax Optio 5si Review By Heidpally on Oct 05, 2007 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

This camera is okay for people who are interested in a smaller size digital camera that can fit in your pocket. It is a basic camera that has normal options that other digital cameras have (landscape, portrait, night, etc). It is very durable. I have dropped it many times, and have managed to bring it to the beach without the sand destroying the camera. I let my 2 year old niece and nephew play with it and they have not managed to break it yet. When it is time to print out the pictures, the quality of the pictures are not there. Looking at the pictures on the camera they look great, but in paper the colors are just not there. My mom and I took pictures of the same thing and her Kodak digital camera blew mine out of the water. Her pictures were brighter and had more true colors, mine were dull and grainy. If I didn't compare my pictures to her, I would say the Pentax was a great camera.
