  • Replied in Why no FF announcement?
    I am sure that they have one ready to go they are just waiting for a sensor that can. * Deliver the Quality that Pentax need * In the Quantity that Pentax need them * For a Price that is viable...

  • Replied in K-01? Why not update K-X?
    Seems we are going round in circles... *THEY DID IT WAS CALLED THE KR* The KR will be replaced soon and will likely have the 16mp sensor of the K5 while the K5 successor will likely have the...
  • Replied in What's the deal with K mirrorless?
    One thing though is that there is now about 35mm of space which could theoretically be used inside the camera body to make longer and larger lenses smaller. -- Chris. A weather sealed ultra...

  • Replied in What's the deal with K mirrorless?
    Coupled with the compact 40mm lens. the depth of the K-01 is 67mm. In the rest of the EVIL crowd the smallest body and lens combinations are: * Panasonic is 53mm with lens. * Olympus is 56mm...

  • Replied in Question on the K-r tungsten light fix
    Hi Jim sorry for the delay in my response had to find the box for the globes and then find this thread again. The brand is EcoLightUp, the globes have a colour temp of around...
  • Replied in Pentax: Please upgrade K-5 video firmware!!!!!!
    The frame rate is likely hardware limited. In terms of the codec, from what I have read on the issue, and granted I am not an expert, but the h.264 is more of a finished product codec not a working...
  • Replied in No swivel display ?

  • Replied in Pentax for Weddings
    I would add a couple of flashes to the mix, it is all well and good to use the high ISO of the K5 but the additional light is also a bonus. -- Chris. A weather sealed ultra wide, is that too...

    Sorry mistaken terminology, the Finder Cap is the closes the finder why the Eye cap is the one that is on the camera -- Chris. A weather sealed ultra wide, is that too much to...
  • Replied in Purple streaks, light leaks on long exposures K5
    Wrong the purpose of the eye cap is the shield the vf from stray light when you eye is to the finder. It does nothing when your eye is away from it. All cameras leak light through the view finder....
