Each time you press the shutter on a KODAK EASYSHARE digital camera, KODAK color science is applied to produce exceptional quality images shot after shot. What's more - in cameras that use the KODAK color science chip, the image processing is accelerated for higher performance. A digital signal processor, smaller than the size of a dime, enables a multitude of performance enhancement features that work together with proprietary imaging processing algorithms for outstanding results. While the function of the chip is customized and optimized for each camera model, the results are consistent- rich, vibrant, true-to-life colors and accurate flesh tones. Less

The PENTAX Optio S series is all grown up with 6.0 megapixels and a gorgeous chassis, but it never outgrew the mint tin. The new PENTAX Optio S6 slides right in. This latest tiny digital features a generous 2.5 inch monitor, 6.0 megapixels, and a powerful 3X zoom sliding lens system. Slim is still in, and the Optio S6 offers the slimmest PENTAX digital body available. Expect substance and style to blend perfectly in the PENTAX Optio S6. Less

Pros Light, sturdy, feature packed, small, price, ease of use.
Cons AF feature can use some speeding up.
