I use this camera a lot because I have a young child and my K10d gets clunky to carry with all of her stuff. It is pretty amazing for such a little thing!

Comments about Pentax Pentax Optio P80 Digital Camera with 12.1 Megapixel, 4x Optical Zoom, 6.3x Digital Zoom - Pearl:
Price is a very good deal, just a few bucks to get a tiny camera capable to get very good images even in low light conditions, nice wide angle and also the ability to record movies on HD.
This is an ultra compact and very light digital camera. You won't miss any important event as you can carry it on everytime everywhere. You can fit it in your pocket easily.
It records movies on HD, even this is not a camcorder, video quality is acceptable for a very low price compared with dedicated and bigger camcorders. Some noise is appreciated in dark areas, but acceptable.
I like the wide angle of this camera, you can get very nice perspectives with the 28 mm equiv. lens.
There is a minor inconvenient for Landscape photography. Blue sky appears to be a single tone blue, making clouds to appear fake or like a paint.
It has a very effective AE Metering allowing you to choose where to read the light and get the effect you want.
Image stabilization is very good, you can shoot with low light conditions and no tripod and still get good results.
