Is this a technology that Pentax was able to transfer from a SLR lens or is it a complete innovation? >I just wonder if this will cause reliability problems? I don't think so. I always thought of my Optio 330RS as tiny and I wondered how they managed to built the lens mechanics. But it proofed to be very reliable and stable. And now my 330RS even looks like a block compared to the new Optio S... =:-) Regards, Heiko
