PENTAX Optio W10 - a waterproof, dustproof compact digital camera capable
of underwater photography featuring a new design for better usability
PENTAX Corporation is pleased to introduce the new PENTAX Optio W10. Furnished
with superior waterproofing and dustproofing, the Optio W10 is a 6.0 effective
megapixels compact digital camera that packs a 2.5-inch LCD monitor and a 3X optical
zoom lens into a slim, newly designed body.
The Optio W10 was developed based on the PENTAX Optio WP series, which realizes
the waterproof functionality for underwater photography without requiring a waterproof
case or other accessories. While continuing the development concepts of sportiness,
elegance, and leisure and the waterproof and dustproof performance for reliable use
outdoors or during water sports, the Optio W10 offers improved LCD monitoring and
movie recording. This model has been made more convenient and user-friendly with the
addition of the new Face Recognition AF/AE function, which detects people’s faces in
the picture frame and adjusts the focus and exposure accordingly.

1. High waterproof performance, without the need for a case
The Optio W10 complies with JIS class 8 waterproof performance, enabling it to
withstand up to 30 minutes of continuous operation at an underwater depth of 1.5

dustproof performance of category 2 (machines produced to prevent internal changes in
atmospheric pressure). Such capabilities make it ideal for use when skiing, taking part
in marine sports, going fishing or enjoying other outdoor events. Waterproof
performance of this kind also means users can simply rinse the camera off any time it
becomes dirty.
2. 2.5-inch LCD monitor with superb visibility outdoors
The Optio W10 comes with a new 2.5-inch low-reflection LCD monitor. The LCD
cover is finished with a non-glare coating, making the screen easier to see even outside
on a sunny day. The LCD backlighting mechanism features a brightness adjustment as
well as a Power Saving mode, which automatically reduces the backlight intensity to
preserve battery life.
3. High-quality movie recording
The Optio W10 smoothly captures movies at 30 fps (frames per second) at sizes up to
640…
