Pentax has been making digital cameras for a long time now and during the poor global economy it is one of the manufacturers that frequently offers nice discounts on its cameras to get consumers to buy. Pentax has announced its latest round of discounts.

The Pentax X70 with its massive 24x optical zoom lens and 12MP resolution is being offered with a $30 instant rebate making the price $369.95. Those looking for a DSLR can get the Pentax K2000 for $499.95 after a $50 instant rebate.

Both of the rebates are for a limited time and are good starting today through May 9th at participating stores. This might be a good time to buy that camera for the graduate or mom. You may even be able to find the camera at a lower price.
