The Pentax Optio RZ10 has 14 megapixels and a 10x wide angle lens. Pentax have also added a feature called intelligent zoom. Using this feature can increase the amount of zoom available to a maximum 67x.
Running through the specification the Optio RZ10 looks like a fairly straightforward, point and shoot camera. There are one or two features that stand out and suggests the camera may offer a couple of extras that suggest it is a step up on more basic digital cameras in this category. These include a macro mode that is able to focus from 1cm away from a subject and compatibility with Eye-Fi memory cards. To add something a little different to your pictures the Optio RZ10 also has a feature that allows it to shoot square photos. Image stabilisation and the ability to shoot High Definition movies are available too.
If you are looking for a camera that will stand out from the crowd the Optio RZ10 could well provide the answer. As well as a more sober black version there are three much more striking versions available. These are in lime green, violet and white.
