Pentax launches the Optio RS1500, a camera with varied features for women.

To capture the attention of consumers in the ever-evolving camera market, one of the best methods is undoubtedly to start with the appearance. Following the earlier releases of the RS1000 and NB1000, Pentax has just announced the latest model, the RS1500. The new model not only continues the well-received interchangeable front panel design but also significantly simplifies the "panel-changing" process. Now, users only need to remove the lens ring that secures the front panel to switch to different styles (on the previous RS1000 model, a tool was required to unscrew four screws). This allows for instant transformations anytime, anywhere (comes with 10 body front panels included).
