Hello everyone,

Hope you are well and safe.

I was looking at the K-1 Mark II and was checking the dpreview where it says K-1 II built-in accelerator bakes noise reduction in RAW files, and it can't be turned off. Just wondering how good or bad that is, and does anyone prefer the K-1 over the K-1 Mark II because of this reason?

There are people who prefer the K-1 over the K-1 II just because they know the accelerator is there.

There might be people who prefer the K-1 over the K-1 II after carefully investigating the images produced with both cameras.

I, OTOH, I did my investigation and decided to upgrade the K-1 to the K-1 II.

I want to get a K-1 with the new 85mm F1.4 when it becomes available, hence my research on the K-1 series. Please share your experience and what do you think about them.

In any case, the differences are minor.

Many thanks.

Alex
