The Pentax Optio P70 is another of those powerful 12 megapixel monsters that have made their apperance in the 2009 CES. Prior to jumping to the features Id like to mention that superb price which at 200$ USD is an excellent buy. Its even packed with face recognition software which makes it easy for amateurs to take really good portraits or even group snaps. It can grab video , but not too well - but then again at this price I am not really complaining.
