in It's gone, but was it any good?
Following on from rizla01`s amazing Pany find, the same company are also doing this Pentax at a silly price.
I don`t think it`s on their website yet, but you can ring them. They`re working late!

    Hiyah,

    Much as I'd love to take the credit for the Panasonic find, I'm afraid that Honour goes to CONDYK.

    I simply went and bought one after Condyks recommendations and vast knowledge of the subject. I then chatted to a chap called Dennis at Photo-optix (who lives about 4 Miles from me) and discovered the Pentax.

    It's a waterproof Camera that can be immersed in water but cannot be used underwater?? (Duh) Fuller details are here.----Pentax Optio Details

    :)

    Regards,

    Riz

    with a link to Amazon.com who apparently have it (and maybe a review or two there) - though the site appears to be down at the moment

    just to let everyone know its the

    Pentax 33WR not the 43WR that is £100

    only difference is that 33WR is 3megapixels
    and you guessed it 43WR is 4megapixels


    still a great find though ;)

    Stick the 33wr in pricerunner and it isn't really a bargain, seemed too good to be true and I've just put 2 friends on to it!
    More e-mails me-thinks!
    All the World is a Stage; and I'm going through a difficult one at the moment!
