It's far easier to have a better original image in the first place, especially for most consumers which won't touch photo-fixing tools in the first place.

I was fortunate enough to use it for two weeks during field research in the bush.  It's a real nice camera.  Engadget failed to mention this camera has a 1cm macro mode and internal 3x zoom.  I got some real nice close-ups of some lichens.<br>Also did a pretty good job of keeping the forest bright and the sky clear (not sure what it's called, something to do with dynamic range?).  My camera kicked the bucket that week, so I might be looking for another one...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[MrSid]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 15th 2008 7:37PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Pentax Optio W60 waterproof camera gets reviewed]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/15/pentax-optio-w60-waterproof-camera-gets-reviewed/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/15/pentax-optio-w60-waterproof-camera-gets-reviewed/</guid><description><![CDATA[So what is the main difference between these "waterproof" cameras and just getting a plastic bag and putting it over your camera? ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bleck]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 15th 2008 7:44PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Pentax Optio W60 waterproof camera gets reviewed]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/15/pentax-optio-w60-waterproof-camera-gets-reviewed/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/15/pentax-optio-w60-waterproof-camera-gets-reviewed/</guid><description><![CDATA[This is safer when under water?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Al]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 15th 2008 9:40PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Pentax Optio W60 waterproof camera gets reviewed]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/15/pentax-optio-w60-waterproof-camera-gets-reviewed/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/15/pentax-optio-w60-waterproof-camera-gets-reviewed/</guid><description><![CDATA[And when your plastic bag leaks, so gone is your warranty too!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[AlphaTeam]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 16th 2008 12:28PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Pentax Optio W60 waterproof camera gets reviewed]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/15/pentax-optio-w60-waterproof-camera-gets-reviewed/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/15/pentax-optio-w60-waterproof-camera-gets-reviewed/</guid><description><![CDATA[I would think that is self explanatory.

(really annoying, often missing the moment!)<br>The 10 Mega Pixel images are really good overall, the HD video is really good, if a little jerky, so shooting video at a lower resolution whilst good in smoothness is not so cleaver in quality obviously, especially if you are in any zoom level.<br>Overall for the money I think its a great camera. I can't wait for next years holiday and for my supplier to replace it. The clicking is a real pain.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dave Perry]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 10th 2009 3:53AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Pentax Optio W60 waterproof camera gets reviewed]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/15/pentax-optio-w60-waterproof-camera-gets-reviewed/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/15/pentax-optio-w60-waterproof-camera-gets-reviewed/</guid><description><![CDATA[The clicking sound is likely due to the SD card being too slow, thats just a guess based on when I lowered the video quality one notch lower the clicking went away.
