Conclusions

the X70 is a great camera that offers a lot of control similar to a DSLR. Not only can the X70 take you from extreme wide-angle to super telephoto with one lens, it does so with the ability to take control of nearly every aspect of shooting….If you’re a dedicated shutterbug and want a camera with all the focal power you’ll ever need in one place, the X70 is your camera. This is even a great intermediary camera for the casual shooter who wants to move up to a better class of camera than a typical point-and-shoot. All things considered and tested, the Pentax X70 is a worthy competitor in the ultrazoom market.

Pros:

  • Good image quality and performance
  • Exceptional focal range
  • Great low-light performance
  • Advanced manual control

Cons:

  • Poor HD video quality
  • AF is slow
  • Overexposed images at longest focal lengths
  • No RAW support

Buy Pentax X70 from Buy.com (US$379.29) or BuyDig.com (US$339.99).
