Advantages: Great quality pictures, many features, easy to use, light, small, not expensive, well made

Disadvantages: Screen hard to see in bright light

The Pentax Optio L40 is a really amazing camera with great features, especially for it's size.

Even compared to my very large cannon, it takes great quality pictures. The 8Mp camera is top quality, even though it isn't a huge number it still takes very good quality pictures.

The camera is very light and easy to hold and handle. It takes SD cards so you can easily transfer pictures to your computer if it has a card reader, or by USB cable if it doesn't. The battery life is very reasonable and it does not take a long time to fully charge with the included battery charger.

The camera has many extra features, one of the ones I find amazing is the smile detection. The camera will automatically detect people's faces (you can see a yellow box round them on the screen) and if you have it in smile mode it will then automatically take the picture when it sees them smile. This is a very cool and nifty feature, especially good for showing off to friends.

It has many modes including outdoor, indoor, portrait, pet, food, sport etc. to take the best quality pictures for what you need.

The only small problem is that the screen is a little hard to see in very bright light.

Overall it is an amazing camera even when compared to professional ones, it has many settings and features and for the price is definitely worth it.

Summary: An amazing camera - especially for the price
