The Pentax X70 is an all-purpose digital compact camera featuring a high-magnification optical 24X zoom lens. Featuring a high-magnification optical 24-times zoom lens with a wide-angle to super-telephoto coverage, and sporting a highly portable, compact, lightweight body, this new all-purpose model performs superbly and effortlessly in a great variety of photographic situations from casual day-to-day snapshots to travel and sports photography.
Versatile optical 24X zoom lens to accommodate a range of subjects
Within its compact, lightweight body, the Pentax X70 features a high-magnification optical 24-times zoom lens offering a focal-length coverage between 26mm wide angle to 624mm super telephoto (in the 35mm format).
Reliable shake-reduction system for sharp, blur-free images
The Pentax X70 incorporates image-sensor-shift-type SR (Shake Reduction) system to assure sharply focused, blur-free images even under demanding photographic conditions. By accurately detecting the amount of camera shake using a high-performance gyro sensor and shifting the CCD image sensor vertically and horizontally at high speed, the X70 offers an outstanding camera-shake compensation effect, equivalent to approximately three shutter steps.
High-speed continuous shooting to capture the decisive moment
The Pentax X70 lets the photographer capture the subject continuously at a maximum speed of approximately 11 images per second, and up to 21 images in succession. Coupled with the Auto-Tracking AF mode that keeps a fast-moving subject in focus all the time, the X70 captures once-in-a-lifetime, decisive moments in sharp focus, even when the subject is an active child or unpredictable pet.
Movie shooting in high-definition TV image quality and with anti-shake protection
The Pentax X70 captures high-quality movie clips, equivalent in image quality to that of high-definition TV (1280 x 720 pixels). It also features the Movie SR mode, which effectively minimizes annoying camera shake during movie shooting through the use of exclusive software.
Super-fast Face Recognition AF&AE function to capture up to 32 faces in approx. 0.03 seconds
The Pentax X70's Face Recognition AF&AE function comes extremely handy for taking casual snapshots of people. It optimizes the focusing and exposure status of the subject up to 32 faces in a single image in approximately 0.03 seconds. The Pentax X70 also offers other user-friendly functions: a Smile Capture function that automatically releases the shutter the instant it detects the subject's smile; and a Blinking Detection function that warns the photographer when the subject's eyes close at the time of shutter release.
Auto sensitivity control, up to a super-high ISO 6400
The Pentax X70 comes equipped with an auto sensitivity control function, which automatically shifts the sensitivity level in relation to the subject's lighting condition and the lens focal-length setting. This allows the photographer to use a high shutter speed in dimly lit locations, such as night scenes or indoor sports events, to effectively minimize camera shake and subject shake.
