As you may remember, I bought this camera in April, shortly thereafter I realized the out of focus pictures I was getting were not my fault. I sent the camera in and Pentax replaced the 'guts' of the focus feature. It was not long before I again realized, it was taking blurry pictures, again. Again I sent it back in, and once again, all new 'guts' and fantastic return service. Got it back today and took about 50 pictures. All came out sharp.

I suppose all of this could be taken as a negative, but that is not my intention. Sure, it;s supposed to work right out of the box, but poop happens. I know several folks who use the W-30 and love them. Me too. Iv'e just had a run of bad luck.
