Pentax Optio E10DigiCamReview have the first online review of the new entry-level Pentax Optio E10, which offers 6.0 megapixels, a 3x optical zoom lens and a 2.4-inch LCD monitor.

“The camera is slow to switch on and take photos, being ready in around four seconds. Focusing seemed slow - taking around around 1 second or longer indoors. The playback mode is a bit sluggish, with photos taking a second or two before displaying when going from photo to photo - however the zoom is quite quick. The camera shutter response seemed average when pre-focused, with a response time of around 0.1 - 0.2 seconds. Shot to shot time was very slow, with a delay of around 7 seconds between shots without flash - switching image review off made this around 2 seconds quicker. Thankfully the flash recharge didn’t slow the camera down, and shot to shot time was roughly 7 seconds with flash. The cameras menus seemed fairly quick. On the High Speed continuous shooting mode, shot time is slow, taking a show every 1.6 seconds, at the highest resolution.”
