Around here, I don't see where Pentax made much of a name for themselves in P&S cameras. They're JAJC, "Just Another Japanese Camera".

Shot around 1980, I think. Pentax didn't have anything much to compete
with, and I'm sure they were losing market share like crazy. That's
pretty much the position we're in now with DSLR's. Then Pentax finally
got in gear in 1986 when they came out with the first zoom compact camera,
and they dominated the market. Even today, Pentax has the best p&s lineup
of any manufacturer.
