The Pentax Optio L70 combines a stylish, user-friendly design with the latest digital camera technology. It lets you produce impressive digital photography with minimum effort and it is thin and light enough to easily fit in pockets and bags.
The camera boasts an image sensor with 12 effective megapixels and a high-performance imaging engine. These cutting-edge pieces of technology allow you to create high-resolution images with true-to-life colour reproduction.
Wide-angle lens and powerful zoom
The L70 also features an smc PENTAX wide-angle lens with a focal length equivalent to approx. 27.5mm to 110mm in 35mm format, and 4x optical zoom. This impressive lens is great for capturing landscapes and group shots from a close distance, plus with a Intelligent Zoom function also available, you can capture distant subjects at approximately 25x zoom!
Blurring isn’t a problem as the Optio L70 has triple anti-shake protection on-board. This consists of a SR (Shake Reduction) mode that effectively compensates for camera shake by processing affected images. There is also a High-Sensitivity SR mode that detects low-lighting conditions and automatically increases the sensitivity to as high as ISO 6400. This makes it possible to use a higher shutter speed and so helps to reduce blurring caused by camera shake, subject movement or when in poor lighting conditions.
Create stunning HD video
You can capture the moment with brilliant 1280 x 720 HD video and watch it back with impressive clarity, detail and sharpness. There is even a Movie SR mode that helps to minimise camera shake and prevent blurring from ruining your movies.
The L70 has a useful 'Vertical snap' mode that makes it easier to create portrait images or shoot from above your head. The mode turns the OK button into a shutter release button, while the directional pad controls the zoom and exposure compensation. The other buttons are deactivated for added convenience and all the icons on the LCD screen are automatically rotated for vertical-position viewing. It’s just like taking a picture with a mobile phone!
This is a camera that can produce striking photos without you needing to fiddle with various buttons and menus. Simply set the camera to Auto Picture mode and it will pick the most appropriate shooting mode for the scene or subject based on the lighting and conditions. It’s ideal for capturing landscape, night scenes and sport for example and it will even automatically adjust the focus range to macro in close-up applications.
The Face Recognition AF & AE function is another feature that helps to get the best from your photos. It detects up to 32 faces in the frame and then optimises the focus and exposure settings for each in approximately 0.03 seconds. This ensures that every face looks great!
Activate the clever Smile Capture function and the camera automatically releases the shutter whenever the subject's smile – So you’ll never miss that happy face. The L70 also features a Blinking Detection function that tells you if the subject’s eyes are closed at the time of shutter release.
