Hey guys
I'm really very interested in these two compact cameras but I notice that there really isn't much on this site about them or their brands even... This is a bit disappointing to me because Steve's Digicams is really the most informative and seemingly unbiased site out there. Does anyone know about anything blatantly good or bad about these models? I realize the WPi is waterproof so is probably making trade offs in other areas, but the idea of a camera that I can just rinse off while traveling is pretty enticing... Any idea where I can get more, reliable info? Thanks Cliff |

The Pentax might be too new to find a good review as it was only announced Aug 30. Steve did the FX5 & 7 along with most of the Panasonics that have been out long enough to finish the tests, so he isn't avoiding the brand.
FX9: http://www.dcresource.com/reviews/pa...mc_fx9-review/ There probably are some compromises in making an underwater camera. The big feature of the FX9 is the stabilization. They also upgraded to an excellent LCD. I think the 7Mp CCD is a little better as well. If you want multiple reviews to compare you might want to sit on your hands for a while. |
