Pentax Optio T30

The Pentax Optio T30 is one of the thinnest digital cameras featuring a three-inch LCD monitor. In addition, the Optio T30 features a touch display with a wide field of view for fun image capture and editing. This latest Optio also offers new functions such as Face Recognition Autofocus and Autoexposure to assure properly exposed portraits and a high ISO Digital Shake Reduction mode. In addition, the innovative touch panel allows image customization with the drawing functions while a unique Mode Pallete includes Auto Picture mode to access camera settings.

Excellent Image Quality
7.1 effective megapixel resolution delivers images with exceptional definition. The camera features the smc Pentax lens to render clear, high-contrast images, while our unique lens coating helps eliminate ghosting and other artifacts. This image processing technology produces vivid colors and creates smooth tonal expressions at all brightness levels.

Large LCD Monitor
The Pentax Optio T30 is equipped with a high-resolution, oversized 3.0-inch LCD monitor with approximately 230,000 pixels that enables images and menu text to be prominently displayed. The monitor also offers a wide 170-degree viewing angle that makes it easy to view images from every direction.

Thinnest Body in 3.0-Inch LCD Class
With a new, thin, high-performance battery design and the Pentax Sliding Lens System, the Optio T30 offers the thinnest compact bodies with a 3.0-inch LCD touch-screen monitor and 3x optical zoom. (The Pentax Sliding Lens System is a proprietary lens system: The central lens group slides upward from the optical axis and the front and back lens groups slip under them. Housing the lens in two steps in the lens cylinder reduces overall lens thickness, thereby minimizing body width.)

Face Recognition AF and AE Function
The Optio T30 is equipped with Face Recognition AF and AE function that automatically detects and focuses on faces regardless of where the people appear in the photo frame. In addition, optimal exposure settings are automatically adjusted so that the areas with faces are highlighted even if there is backlighting. (The Face Recognition AF and AE function is available when the photography mode is “Portrait” and the camera is directed at people from the front.)

Digital Shake Reduction
The digital Shake Reduction mode helps reduce image blur by adjusting sensitivity automatically to as high as ISO 3200 to match the brightness of the subject. This enables photography with fast shutter speeds and less blur.

Movie Shake Reduction
An electronic, software-based Shake Reduction function exclusively for capturing movies effectively corrects image distortion. In Movie Shake Reduction mode, the field of view is narrower than that during normal recording.

Touch-Display Control System
With just a touch, various functions may be entered directly on the Optio T30 touch-display LCD monitor.

My Drawing Mode
The fun and easy-to-use My Drawing mode helps users customize shots with a stylus pen (included). Users may sketch and write notes directly on images displayed on the monitor or add stored or original illustrations to any image with the Stamp function.

Auto Picture Mode
The Auto Picture mode allows the camera to automatically determine the best shooting conditions for Landscape, Portrait, Night Scene, and Program modes and choose the optimum settings for each subject. This Pentax original function makes photography easier for new users.
