Comprised of 8 groups of 12 elements, the lens of the OptioMX4 features aspherical lenses and extra-low dispersion glass elements to minimize aberration.

Great all around camera

Date of Review:  Apr 15, 2005
The Bottom Line: Nice option to shoot great looking pictures or video through same camera! Still shots = professional quality, video = compare to home video camera.

Optio MX4

Date of Review:  Mar 1, 2005
The Bottom Line: Great mix if you need a digital camera first, and a camcorder next, but don't want to carry both.
Review: Excellent 4 megapixel quality when flash is used. Excellent flash compared to Canon S400; S410 and S500 models. Color is good but not as robust as the Canon Digital Elph models. Longer time getting to know the camera. Longer time to "pull camera...
