A nice approach, but only if you are planning on making short movies
The compact Pentax Optio MX4 takes MPEG4 video and four Megapixel still images. It also boasts a 10x optical zoom. Is this the ultimate all-in-one imaging device?
Pentax Optio MX4
IN-DEPTH review of the Pentax Optio MX digital camera, with actual sample images, and a detailed data sheet.
Camcorders have been trying to muscle in on the digital-stills business for long enough, so it was about time photography fought back. Many digital cameras already have limited movie recording, but this is usually far from full TV resolution
The oddly-shaped digital camera-cum-cine camera Optio MX has be reincarnated with the MX4, which Pentax announced today. The new version ups the resolution to 4 million pixels while maintaining the 10x optical zoom. It has a 1.8-inch tilt and swivel LCD as well as a pop-up flash the height of which is said to reduce red-eye. It will be available in October.
