PENTAX Optio S1 Compact Digital Camera Unveiled

PENTAX today took the wraps off of the PENTAX Optio S1 digital compact camera in several interesting colors such as chrome or glossy black or green. The 14 megapixel Pentax Optio S1 has a light body with 5 times optical zoom along with a 2.7" LCD. Other features in this little camera include an optical shake reduction system and the ability to take HD videos (720P). A remote control is also available. Right now you can buy it at the Pentax Web Store for $200 (it's on pre-order).

Here is a nice hands-on demo and review of the Pentax S1, which gets especially enjoyable starting at the 4:30 mark ;-)
