Pentax Optio 33WRDCResource have posted their review of the Pentax Optio 33WR, a compact 3-megapixel camera with a 2.8x optical zoom and a weather resistant case.

“The Pentax Optio 33WR ($350) is one of the cameras that are water resistant right out of the box. I’ve said this before, but I’ll say it again here: water resistant is not the same as waterproof. The 33WR can get splashed or rained on, but you can’t go swimming with it. The manual says that it can be submersed in water briefly, and gives an example of washing the camera off in the sink (don’t use soap, though).”
