Summary: great little camera
Review: My wife and I bought this camera as a Christmas gift to ourselves, as we needed a new camera. We are very pleased with the quality of the pictures and the ease of use of this camera. This camera is easy to load with film, has an excellent zoom, and works great even in difficult lighting. The only complaint we have is that with the 'red eye reduction' on, it slows the picture taking process as the flash fires, so you can't take quick snapshots with that feature in use. I think most cameras have this problem, so if you are taking pictures of fast little kids doing something cute, don't plan on using red eye reduction, just get yourself one of those special 'red eye' pens at the photo counter.

Summary: Powerful camera, works wonderfully.
Review: Strengths: Almost as small as a canon Elph2, looks attractive, easy to use, LCD panel light up for night shooting, panorama switch, light in weight. Weaknesses: Haven't found any yet. Overall: The main reason I bought this camera is because it look attractive. It's design is small and the silver color makes it look durable and it is. It's like buying a car, you first like the looks then the specs comes second. Also, it's easy to use, my wife learned it in couple minutes and she know nothing about cameras. Couple people mention about the zoom being a little slow, but I find it just perfect, at less for normal everyday consumer use. I mean, if your looking for fast zoom you should be looking for SLR (some great ones on Amazon too) and not point & shoot. The picture quality are clear and good. But then again, keep in mind that you must know how to use the camera or any camera correctly and your film developer must do a good processing job to get good prints. Overall, I recommend this camera to anyone. It worth the money. Great camera; you won;t be disappointed.

Summary: adequate
Review: The Minolta we previously had produced better pictures without having to worry about settings. I can't get as good pictures with this Pentax--just very average ones. I won't buy this brand of camera again.

Summary: One of the Best ...
Review: This is one of the best point-and-shoot camera's i have used. It is great for the point and shoot action. The remote is a wonderful feature for taking family picures, especially with a table top tripod. The zoom movement is nice and smooth, unlike a similar Samsung camera i was evaluating. Thge only drawback is that the flash and the zoom are a drain on the battery. although i hear that is the story of most point-and-shoot cameras with zoom.

Summary: Great camera
Review: This is the best camera i ever had. Sharp pictures even under complicated lighting conditions. Nice and elegant design.The aluminum body is just perfect. Great features, easy to learn from the manual. Conclusion: A fine camera to fall in love with. Amazon has the best price, but only for US residents. I had to pay a lot more in Europe.

Summary: Disappointing
Review: Very simply, nearly all the photos taken with this camera lacked sharpness. I am an experienced amateur photographer and purchased the 120Mi based on the reviews and specifications. On the plus side, the camera's size and controls are excellent. Both my wife and myself took almost 100 pictures under various conditions using Kodak and Fuji (ASA 200 and 400) film. Only 4 of these pictures had the clarity and sharpness that was acceptable and expected. The rest of the pictures were less than sharp. I don't know why the camera performed so poorly. Perhaps it was defective, but I doubt that since a few photos were clear. Possibly the smaller size and lack of a grip caused camera movement in some way when pressing the shutter. It is hard to say why the results were so mediocre and disappointing. I should also mention that the red-eye was quite severe in many flash photos, even of people with brown eye color. In comparison, the Canon Platinum Zoom 85 takes crystal clear photos. Even my Nikon 775 digital camera is much sharper. We returned the Pentax 120 Mi for a refund.

Summary: Great little camera!
Review: What impresses me the most about this camera is that it takes really nice pictures. I purchased it recently and took a test roll (Kodak 200 speed film) without reading the manual. I took some in the bright sunny outdoors, some in dimly lit restaurants, some at night in my apartment with poor lighting, and some in the near dark. And all the pictures came out with the subject(s) in beautiful focus, and crystal clear. The only small problem was some of my apartment pictures had a little bit of red-eye, but this camera does have red-eye reduction, and I will be sure to read the manual about how to use it. In addition, it's a great travel camera -- it's very compact, and fairly sturdy. I packed it in a full back pack (without a case) and also took it to an amusement park on a recent trip and found that it was light enough in my purse to carry around all day, and did not mind being jolted. All in all, I'm extremely happy with this purchase both quality and price-wise. I would offer one tip I've learned -- the timer function does not turn itself off after a picture, so be careful when you snap the next one -- you might still be on the timer!
