Cameras are cool… i have one… i dont use it much… cameras are on phones now… whyd i buy a camera… my computer has a camera… i guess guys dont use cameras… or maybe just trolling losers that have nothing better to do but click,click,click till the clock hits 12… oh well…
im a sad sad little man… Bazinga!
I wish they were offering this in the mint green color; I would be all over it!
These were on sale recently at Fry’s for $99, so this beats that deal by at least $5 for Texas residents.
I grabbed one at Fry’s and am now preparing to return it, however, as the pictures can be quite (typically) noisy - a common problem for lower-cost high megapixel cameras. If anyone has information to the contrary (suggesting a bad unit) please let me know, otherwise comparable online reviews report the same issue.
Unfortunately, you have to get into the $150-200 range to get pictures that remain reasonably noise-free at even “normal” relative ISO settings (200-400).
Good luck!

i was not surprised by this until i saw the word “new”! I couldn’t believe that. Usually you see deals like this from woot with “refurbished” if i had an extra hundred buck lying around and did not have a camera already i would definitely be in for one.
I’m looking for a good decent camera. Anybody own one of these? How do you like it?
It’s only going for ~$80-100 on eBay brand new though:
I don’t know if this camera would be especially good for the active type of person. I have the previous version of this camera, took it on a hike with it in my pocket, and the screen broke because of slight pressure caused by my leg. Beware of Pentax’s very pressure sensitive screens.
