The Optio A10 is an ultra-compact camera with an 8 Megapixel CCD and 3X optical zoom lens. The body is made mostly of metal, and it feels very solid for the most part. Weak spots include the usual flimsy door over the battery and memory card compartment and the plastic tripod mount. Speaking of which, you can't swap memory cards while the camera is on a tripod. The A10 has a CCD-shift type image stabilizer which reduces the effects of "camera shake", allowing you to take sharp photos at shutter speeds that aren't usable on unstabilized cameras. On the back of the camera you'll find a large and sharp 2.5" LCD display. Unfortunately these screen has poor visibility in bright outdoor light as well as dimly lit rooms, and there's no optical viewfinder to use as a backup.
