Product Information

The PENTAX Optio S5i is an ultra-compact, lightweight digital camera with 5.0 effective megapixels and a 3X optical zoom lens. Its high quality aluminum alloy body and grip are textured beautifully for a sense of high design.Despite a powerful 3X optical zoom lens, the Optio S5i weighs 3.7 ounces (excluding batteries and SD memory card). A unique Sliding Lens system that allows the lens to store up and away inside the camera for the ultra-compact dimensions of 3.3x2.0x.80 inches (excluding controls and other profusions).For high-precision imaging, the Optio S5i features the power of 5.0 effective megapixels and features an smc PENTAX lens that delivers high-clarity and suppresses ghosting and flare. The primary color filter reproduces vivid, natural colors.The Optio S5i incorporates a large 1.8-inch TFT LCD monitor that offers an approximate 100% field of view with approximately 85, 000 pixels. It makes confirmation of composition or focus easy at the time of shooting and enhances image confirmation during playback.A Quick button function allows the user to designate one mode from a choice of 10 to act as a shortcut button to a selected function. By default, the Optio S5i comes with Green mode designated for the Quick button, which leaves all settings to the camera with the exception of zooming. Additional modes accessible via the Quick button include: Green mode, USER mode, Movie mode, Mode Palette, White balance, Mode memory, Resizing, Trimming, Image/voice copy, and Format.In addition to the conventionally available shooting modes, the Optio S5i features a new "Sport" mode that sets the camera for shutter speed-priority to enable spur of the moment shooting for active subjects. As with other shooting modes, the Sport mode is easy to select on the Mode palette where mode icons on the LCD monitor are displayed all at once. The easy to select option helps isolate 10 select modes from the impressive selection of 21 modes.Pan focusing ensures clear focusing from a close range to infinity, providing a better chance of capturing the action in quickly disappearing photo opportunities.The battery charger stand charges the battery inside the camera as well as spare batteries.Optio S5i users may control image playback on a TV via two optional remote controller units. Remote control F can be used to control image advance by pressing the shutter release button, while remote control E can be used to control image advance with the shutter release button, and image rewind with the zoom button.
