Pentax has announced their new W90, a heavier duty waterproof and shock proof point and shoot. The new Microscope mode will be good for taking those bug close ups.
The twelve-megapixel Pentax Optio W90 is a heavy-duty water and shockproof digital compact camera that also provides an all-new Digital Microscope mode. Combining a macro shooting capability from one centimetre away with the Digital Zoom function, the Optio W90’s new Digital Microscope mode delivers a magnified view of miniscule subjects difficult to observe closely with the naked eye.
Priced at $329.95 USD, the PENTAX Optio W90 will ship in April 2010. A waterproof infared remote control (sold separately) for use with the PENTAX Optio W90 and other infrared compatible Optio models will be available at the same time for $29.95 USD.
