  • My crystal ball says there will be two new Pentax dSLR cameras this year: K-3 (24MP, APS-C, new body styling, different from K-5) K-300 (16MP, APS-C, weather sealed entry level body, just one...
  • Both, the viewfinder and high ISO performance are class leading, I can confirm that.
  • Replied in K-30 II
    The majority of dSLR videographers has little experience with film production, but now they all want to have that film-look, because technically the camera can provide it. Some of the users have...
  • Replied in K-30 II
    Well, my K-30 has has decent battery life of approx. 500-600 shots with a set of Eneloops, this is definitely enough for my needs. Also it works extremely well with external bouncing flash! Must be...
  • Replied in K-30 II
    1. If you're serious about video get an external recorder. The built in mic is just good for sync. 2. My other camera has HDMI but I don't use it. With a viewfinder loupe focusing with K-30 is...
  • Replied in Upgrading K-r
    I'll second Simon's opinion. I didn't like K-30 design when I saw the product pictures. That changed dramatically when I held one in my hands. It's terrific! The deeply molded grip makes K-30...
  • The intuitivity level is still high, but the complexity went up and unfortunately functionality went a bit down. From my standpoint the K10/K20 body design was still best Pentax has made to date. I...
  • Pentax is not big about the menues, usually you run the menus once for the initial setup, and thats it! Later when you shoot you press the info-button, this cycles between the status display...
  • Besides that being weather sealed the WR has a better hardware but is about the same lens. While DA L uses plastic mount it does not have the Quick-Shift mechanism, which is a nice feature by the...
  • I guess what makes Pentax really special are their users, which are not attracted by the big names of Canon and Nikon. I would roughly divide the Pentaxians into two groups: 1) The...
  • Replied in Optic for K-30
    DA 2,8/35mm Limited.
  • Having K-01 would only make sense if you would seriously want to do more advanced video work. For all other photographic applications K-x is more suitable, not only because it has a proper...
  • The absence of black nylon is refreshing to see, it seems like the main goal with the design was not-to-look-like-a-camera-bag. That plan has definitely succeeded, but I question the functionality....

  • Much fun is involved using the X-5, definitely more than its serious dSLR-like looks might suggest. X-5 is fast and responsive, so very smooth that you never really need to wait for it. Lens range...

  • I got the X-5 for what it is, without any idealism. I already own several dSLRs and use them when needed, X-5 is here for the casual photo-walk. For this purpose it's ideal, no need to change...

  • That's pretty cool, didn't realise my X-5 can do even this! :-D
  • Magazine tests are tricky because their intention is to be absolute - they are trying to find the absolute truth about a certain camera. The problem is that the same camera can appear relatively...
