Up for bidding here is a Pentax Optio S50, 5 megapixel
digital still camera.
Not to be mistaken for the cheaper recent version, which
is called the Optio 50.
No reserve. Starting bid at £25 only.
Postage within the UK for only £5 via Special Delivery, or within
the EU for £15 with insurance included.
This camera is fully working and in great
condition. I do not have the original box, but this auction includes everything
that I got in the the box, and even some extras.
Extras included are a camera pouch and a 128 Megabyte SD card.
There are some very minor use marks on the camera - some tiny scratches on the
back just beside the screen (but not on the screen), which are visible in the
enlarged pictures.
Around this time last year the camera cost about £250, so it is
well built, and it will make a great bargain for whoever bids on it and wins.
Feel free to ask any questions.

1 Konica Minolta camera pouch, which fits the camera perfectly.
1 Used (still working) CRV3 Lithium non-rechargable long life battery.

The lens is a Pentax 3x optical zoom, which gives about 35-105mm in comparative 35mm film terms.
The digital zoom is 4x. The macro is 6cm.
The camera comes with a built in memory of 11Mb, but can also take SD Cards. This auction includes a 128 Mb SD card.
The normal battery type is a pair of standard AA batteries (Rechargables are a good idea, but sadly not included)
The camera can also use a single lithium CRV3 battery. This auction includes 2 of these, one new and one used.
The camera is Pictbridge compatible, so it should work fine with any Pictbridge printer.
I won't just list the entire spec sheet of the camera, but for those interested in further details can check out two reliable reviews of the camera here:

NOTE: The original printed camera instruction book is included, but I believe the software instructions are on one of the CDs shown (The CDs have never been used). If not, you can download both of these manuals if you like(about 6MB PDF each), from the Pentax web site as linked here:
