Pentax cameras are not wildly popular among photographers. And absolutely in vain, since they are in no way inferior to A-brands. For example, the flagship cropped model with the K-3 II index can offer high quality photos and videos, as well as reliable weather protection.
Matrix
The DSLR matrix has a 24-megapixel resolution, and its main advantage is the absence of an anti-moir filter, which allows you to get sharper images. The sensor in tandem with the top-end Prime III processor produces a clear and low-noise image even at high ISO values, the maximum threshold of which reaches 51200 ISO. By the way, the same processor is installed in the heart of the Pentax 645Z professional medium format camera.
Vibration compensation
One of the key features of Pentax cameras is the matrix image stabilization system. In this case, it acts as the strongest in the line — not every optical stabilizer built into the lens is given to compensate for 4.5 exposure steps when shooting handheld. In addition, Japanese engineers have applied the matrix shift function, the main purpose of which lies in more natural colour reproduction and increased detail in photographs.
Ergonomics
The body of the SLR in order to avoid the ingress of dust and moisture into the structure is dotted around the perimeter with rubber seals. Reliable protection makes it possible to use the camera in snow or in heavy rain. The “carcass” itself fits perfectly in the hand, and all kinds of controls are located so that it is easy to reach them with your fingers. Particularly demanding amateur photographers may not have enough touch control of a 3.2-inch display, which, moreover, cannot rotate.
Orientation
In the place where the complete flash is usually located, a GPS module is built-in. Therefore, to highlight the scenes being shot, it will be useful to purchase an external flash. Well, GPS paired with an electronic compass will help determine the location of a photo or video shoot. I am glad that the included modules do not greatly affect the life of the 1860 mAh battery — on a single charge it allows you to click about 700-800 frames.
