ULTRA-SLIM BODY WITH FLASH DISTANCE OF UP TO 50 FEET!

• The Pentax® Optio M40 is equipped with powerful flash photography performance options for subjects in dark locations to be captured clearly at a distance up to 50 feet. The flash also features a Soft Flash function that prevents overexposure of skin tones by controlling the amount of light emitted when photographing at close distances.
• With 8.0 megapixels, the Pentax Optio M40 features an ultra-slim, sophisticated metallic body offering a 3x optical zoom and a large and easily viewable LCD monitor.
• The user-friendly Optio M40 also features Face Recognition and digital Shake Reduction.
• With an ultra-slim body that features an exclusive and very compact rechargeable battery, the Optio M40 body is less than 7/10 inch thick.

• The Pentax Optio M40 8.0 megapixels delivers high-resolution photos that capture images with the finest details even at higher magnifications.
• The Optio M40 is equipped with a Face Recognition AF and AE function that automatically detects and focuses on faces, regardless of where the people appear in the photo frame.
• Optimal exposure settings are automatically conducted so that the areas with faces are highlighted, even if there is backlighting.
• A Digital Shake Reduction mode reduces camera shake and subject blur when photographing still images. The sensitivity is adjusted automatically to as high as ISO 3200 to match the brightness of the subjects to enable photography with faster shutter speeds and images with less blur.
• Despite the compact size of the Optio M40, the camera comes with a generous 2.5-inch monitor with an improved pixel number of approximately 150,000 pixels for easier playback.
• The Optio M40 is also equipped with an Economy mode that promotes energy saving by dimming the backlight automatically after a certain period of time has passed.
• An Auto Picture mode lets the camera automatically determine the shooting conditions for Landscape, Portrait, Night Scene, and Normal mode and choose the optimal settings for each subject.
• The Optio M40 features 16 photography modes including Natural Skin Tone, Flower, Sport, Pet, and Food that are set with the optimum exposure and white balance depending on the scene or subject.
