You gave the M50 8/10, but this M60 gets 7/10 for image quality. Is the lens and hardware all that different?

Can you recommend something similar (or not too much more expensive) which *isn't* glacially slow to autfocus? I am looking for a cheap-ish compact, don't need any bells or whistles, but the one crucial feature is that it must be able to focus (relatively well, even in low-ish light) fairly quickly. My wife's main complaint with our first digital (a Canon S45) was that, by the time it had focussed and taken the shot, the subject had moved.

Casio's ultra-compacts are excellent value for money, and have very fast autofocus.

The Pentax M60 shows that you don’t have to spend a fortune to get a decent camera. While it does have its limitations, for £100 it offers excellent build quality, great handling, a wonderfully easy-to-use interface and some fun features. Unfortunately its low price shows in its slow performance and poor overall image quality.

Overall

8/10
