The K10D is not a top performing DSLR, though it offers a competitive design and feature set deserving of comparisons to these models. At its reduced price, the K10D brings an advanced DSLR into the realm of general consumer affordability, and provides an economic alternative for seasoned shooters on a budget.

Pentax K10D Review - DigitalCameraInfo
Pentax Optio Z10 Review - CNET
Given a rating of 7 out of 10, it’s not easy for a camera company to make a small, good-looking camera that takes nice pictures. There always has to be a tradeoff when you try to cut costs. In this case, Pentax seems to have traded some time between shots in favor of a long zoom lens and nice, if not stellar, image quality. As long as you don’t mind the wait, you might be surprised with the images you get from the Optio Z10.
Pentax Optio Z10 Review - PhotographyBlog
The Pentax Optio Z10’s image quality is below average. The camera’s main drawback is noisy images, with the relatively slow speed of ISO 200 showing some noise and blurring of detail. The noise gets progressively worse as you go from ISO 400 to ISO 800 and finally to the completely unusable 1600 and 3200 settings.
The Pentax Optio Z10 handled chromatic aberrations quite well with limited purple fringing effects appearing only in high contrast situations.
Pentax Option S10 Review - TrustedReviews
The latest in a successful series of ultra-compact cameras, the Pentax Optio S10 combines excellent build quality, simplicity of design and good all-round performance with a user-friendly ease of use.
It compares well with other quality compacts from rival manufacturers, and its very good low-light performance makes it especially useful for social snapshot photography.
If you’re looking for a camera to record the office Christmas party it should definitely be on your shortlist.
