ThinkCamera has a review on the Pentax Optio M10 where on this Pentax camera they state, 'The M10 is a camera I was initially unsure of, but while I've had it for review it's grown on me, and I can definitely say it's a good choice of camera for novices - it has the specification you'd expect and the right level of freedom. More experienced photographers may find the lack of total control and image quality a bit constricting but the size and robustness of the camera would make it a worthy travel camera.' 'The picture quality of the M10 is what you'd expect from an entry level camera - the colours are reasonable but a bit soft and the red especially looks a bit thin and washy. The camera suffers from a bit of purple fringing...'
