The Rugged Pentax Waterproof Digital Camera range: a Do-It-All, Take-Everywhere Compact Camera

Two Tough Versions to choose from: There are two current Pentax waterproof camera models available: Pentax waterproof Optio WS80 and the higher specified freeze proof, shockproof and waterproof Pentax waterproof Optio W90.

A Robust Take Anywhere Camera: The design of the Pentax waterproof digital camera models WS80 and W90 means that one does not have to worry about it getting damp or wet. Furthermore, the tougher Optio W90 means it can withstand the elements so that you really can take it almost anywhere, whether this be snowboarding, snorkeling, on a beach or up a mountain.

5 x Optical Zoom: Both Pentax waterproof digital cameras have a larger than average 5 x optical zoom. The WS80 comes with a 35mm lens while the W90 has a wide-angled 28mm lens. This, combined with the 5x optical zoom gives great flexibility for different shooting situations.

Pentax Optio WS80 Features: This model has been well designed with features such as waterproof to 1.5m / 5ft, 10MP sensor, 5x optical zoom, 2.7" LCD screen and is one of the lightest waterproof cameras at 105g (no batteries or memory card).

Pentax Optio W90 Features: This model has designed for toughness with features such as waterproof to 6m / 20ft, shockproof dropped from .21m / 4ft, freeze proof to -10C / 14F, 12.1MP sensor, 5x optical zoom, 2.7" LCD screen and 28mm wide angle lens.

Robust Enough to be a Kid Tough Camera too: These cameras are suitable for every day use whatever the conditions. The Pentax waterproof Optio W90 is a digital waterproof shockproof camera which means that it is even a kid tough camera! There are specially designed tough waterproof kids camera models on the market (for example Fisher Price, Vetch) but these are relatively big and bulky. Why not consider a "real" grown up camera which could also double up as a kid tough camera? Adults won't need to worry about potential knocks or it getting wet given the durable design of the Pentax waterproof camera Optio W90.
