The following opinions have been automatically translated with Google Translate.  | sent on January 12, 2018 Pros: Iso 80 native, image quality, Iso seal, built-in stabilizer in the machine, tropicalization, backward compatibility with ALL Pentax optics, K mount, fully magnesium construction, 100% pentaprism viewfinder, key layout, user interface, key customization Cons: Autofocus a little below the competition (at the time) when compared to the Nikon / Canon machines of the same level (eg: d300, 7d) performance and construction. Opinion: Really amazing machine that now you buy used for less than 150 euros. What to say? EXCELLENT for everything with 16 mpx that are enough for anything to an advanced lover. I loved it and sold it only for passage to Nikon for the sake of reselling the whole system (although I kept some optics with the idea one day to buy the big sister FF K1). It has a very high image quality and a high enough ISo performance (it is still APSC) with a dynamic range worthy of much more expensive, emblazoned and larger format machines (we are talking about more than 14 stops measured by Dxomark). Do not waste raw anemic (as it happens with Nikon) and the jpeg customization in the room is very extensive and allows fine adjustments to obtain jpegs already usable. It 'an extremely compact machine, which allows you to carry it without much effort and coupled with a lens of our taste (I used the 17-70 f / 4 as a handyman) turns into a perfect machine for any use dispassionate during a walk ora photographic output. It should be noted that the Pentax APSC range of lenses is very broad, with fixtures ranging from 14 mm to 300 and many even professionally known zoom lenses. It is not a machine for those who take sports photos (the performance of AF is not exciting in this area, especially for those who are used to Nikon / Canon machines type d300 / d7100 or 7d) but for everything that is stationary or moves little autofocus is more than enough. The colors of the Pentax system are different from those of Nikon and Canon, although with Lightroom / Photoshop / the software you prefer we can do whatever we want. Needless to say, it accepts any optical MF produced in the last 40/50 years including some rare gems (including optics attack m42 with adapter) that are just a few euros even on the electronic market and that as a result of the SR (stabilization of sensor in the machine) also become stabilized optics, while remaining in manual focus. rnOnce the optional accessory OME 53 (15 euoriginal ro) that allows you to expand the viewfinder view, so as to make it more readable if we often use manual optics (it is still the viewfinder of an APSC ...). rnA little gem: the 80 ISO NATIVE (it is not an extension, they are real and are the minimum ISO selectable in the car - see the Dxomark tests.The only car that I think was pushed to a lot was perhaps the Nikon d810 (now the d850 ) ... I sold it and in the end I regretted it ... rn |
user50158  | sent on June 08, 2016 Pros: Ergonomics, quality files, high iso held up to 6400 excellent, very good up to 8000, from 10000 up begins to degrade, 80 iso minimum, flurry, weather sealing, strength, stabilization, micro af adjustment, composition with sensor shift, menu packed with useful features, shadows and highlights in alarm liveview, viewfinder af speed, settings and menus, ease of use, hdr room that under normal lighting conditions can be taken freehand, built to last and designed as an extension of the photographer. Cons: In my opinion you have to be too fussy to find cons. Opinion: I own this beast and I'm ultra satisfied, I think for the same price there is no better on the market of the aps-c reflex. Has everything you need to photograph in any conditions, the HDR is amazing, I snapped a myriad always freehand and always come out perfect, in fact I think it's a masterpiece of fotografica.rnPentax machine unlike the competition, designs his models with the photographer in mind and not with the economic self-interest in mente.rnHo read that some have written that has trouble focusing in low light, well it is in total darkness! I never found maf problems in low light, if not precisely in the dark, I challenge other cameras in focuse in the dark, with only the light of 'af-assist. |
  | sent on May 16, 2015 Pros: Tropicalization, ergonomics, performance at high ISO, image quality, dynamic range ... Cons: For the time being detected Opinion: I have this camera for about a month and a half; I'm using it with an old Ricoh 50mm f2, manual, and I must say that I am really good: as ergonomics in my opinion is fantastic, lightweight yet durable, small (for its range) but it holds up well; as surrender I can not complain, on the contrary, the use primarily for portraits and night shots: the first is really practical, but above all on the landscape shows off its best side, I can reach well into 6400ISO with an acceptable noise and still correctable PP. the controls are simple and intuitive and I find comfortable double ring, which TAv mode is perfetta.rnNon I can only advise to all those who want, at a price all things considered modest, a reflex to the levels of a professional, and certainly the last two models released are also better rnAGGIORNAMENTO 28/06 / 2016rnDopo more than a year that the user can only confirm what I wrote, the very use in night shots and its yield at high ISO is incredible (to give you an idea, I took a picture at ISO 8000 to Andromeda and besides picking up the weak signal of the galaxy got a photo much cleaner than I expected). Definitely want good lenses to enforce the sensor but I'm working, the stabilizer in the room is comfortable and allows you to have any very well stabilized optical I must add; really excellent ergonomics and it is not heavy. The only flaw I found is that every so often a mistake to focus on in the evening, say around sunset, not quite in the dark, but I have never explained why since even more in the dark offers very good fire. |
 | sent on November 14, 2014 Pros: tropical conditions, light alloy body, overall it is easy to carry it by hand for a long time. shutter silent, fast lead time, good burst, noise at high ISO content. and more ... Cons: it says little speed focusing in low light Opinion: having other aps canon and nikon D700 ks, a large-scale comparison it can be done. is a great machine, second only to a ff, but slightly. light weight allows you to carry it around on long trips and with two zoom (the excellent Pentax 18-55 and 55-300 pentax always) you do everything. for those who can spend more, however, there are other objectives decent. maybe someone has reason to talk about colors a little washed out, but I think they are very true to life: the bright colors and very vivid picture of many, I'm a little out of touch! the burst is outstanding, the minimum time is from high-class car, the power is to be professional, modes and shooting scenes overwhelm, the menu easy and straightforward. how HST is really brilliant, I use it almost always with satisfaction along with auto ISO. I would recommend it to everyone. all in all, a pretty professional camera, apart from the sensor aps, aps but it is also in the price! |
 | sent on May 09, 2013 Pros: Solid, excellent ergonomics, essential functions and easily manageable, image stabilizer on the sensor. Cons: Autofocus a bit 'slow, lack of manual controls on video, MJPEG only (not AVCHD) Opinion: It 'a car that I love ... I tried Canon and Nikon mid-range not find the same feeling. Outstanding for use in manual, maybe combined with optical obsolete. Excellent high ISO, excellent color rendering, very natural using quality optics. I use it mainly with the FA 31 f1.8 LTD, a lens that I find it fantastic. The stabilization makes the optical sensor for the benefit of lighter and more robust. I could ask for a more handsome autofocus, in backlit conditions or strong colors sometimes completely misses the fire, very visible at large apertures. It seems that the K5II has exceeded this limit. A car that I would definitely recommend!! |
 | sent on October 25, 2012 Pros: Excellent value for money, comfortable, and many customizable parameters (there are many, do not point them all) and well-placed buttons (useful keys RAW / Fx, Af and green button), M Hyper mode and USER, and still Sv, TAv Green and beyond the classic, double ring, high quality RAW, good dynamic range, 7 fps, tropical, system stabilization and dust removal and control more than good! (Always better than averceli!) 100% viewfinder, external microphone input (discrete inner); analogue preview of depth of field, interval shooting, multiple exposure, composition adjustment, confirmation of focus and parameter Catch-in focus ( useful especially with manual lenses) digital filters and other in-camera processing, noise reduction for high ISO and long exposure, and customized according to the ISO used, very good High ISO / low light; exceptional ISO up to ISO 800 (with expansion also ISO 80), optimal / up to 3200 more than good, good / decentin addition, up to max of 51,200 with expansion enabled, which is acceptable if heavily corrected in development, raising the flash pop-up mechanics and electronics, electronic level. Cons: The "good machine JPEG" is the default (at least for me), but you have to fiddle around a bit 'with the correct parameters for hue, sharpness, noise reduction and more; increases in exposure can be set by only 1/3 and 1 / 2 EV, no stop 1 (for ISO's), no manual video settings (iso and times; circumvented by setting the parameters in USER mode (Av), lock the exposure (AE-L) and turn ring on video); fast overheating of the sensor in video mode noise sound sensor that grinds while shooting video. Opinion: I like it very much! You can do everything! With the battery grip also acquires a more important aspect that tends not to hide because of the smaller than machines of the same category as 7D, D7000, and a few full frame. Have a good tool also helps the photographer more creative and more experienced: so does the Pentax K-5. Recommended! |
user16587 | sent on October 22, 2012 Pros: body sealed, compact, silent shutter, made at high iso. Cons: the colors are no longer the classic pentax, "shoot" greens and reds. optical park very limited, especially in the tele side. Opinion: it is a great machine with a very low noise at high ISO. up to 1600 in Video Does not nulla.rndiventa great for concerts, ceremonies, and in consizioni low luminosità.rni colors make it more like the good old samsung sensor, has a lot of dynamic range and this is a pro for recoveries but colors are very washed out, even after processing the file for use in PP.rnio naturalist I sold mine. |
 | sent on September 23, 2012 Pros: money compared to rivals, weather sealed body, dynamic range, low noise high ISO, close to 900 shots on a battery. Cons: screen not orintabile Opinion: A semi-pro camera body rugged magnesium alloy and stainless steel can be used down to -10 °, beautiful to hold and easy to use. Flurry of 7fotogrammi per second for sports lovers or not, with speeds up to 1/8000, unfortunately, the choice of optics is limited compared to Canon and Nikon, but as the saying Juza 4 optics good enough. |
 | sent on January 04, 2012 Pros: strength, impermeability, high ISO sensitivity, low weight, value for money Cons: Sometimes impossible to find optical "Universal" (read: Sigma Tamron Tokina-) Imperdibilmente always available for Nikon and Canon brands. Opinion: Hi all, I am a fan of fotografia.Devo say that I've read so many reviews of the K5, and all praise this camera, even DPReview, classifying it among the GOLD AWARD well with a 83% score, ranking just behind Canon EOS 1D Mark IV and Nikon DS3 (ex aequo with 89% of score). shame that we are talking about Reflex 5/6000 €! This camera has a good quality / price ratio, a menu so complete in the first place could be a source of concern, but ultimately it is just as intuitive and therefore easy to interpretazione.Questa fabulous Pentax K5 I think is the best in its class and why not even categories of so-called "professional" because nothing has inferior to the latter ... indeed! Ultimately it deserves a 9.8/10.Maurizio. |
 | sent on August 12, 2011 Pros: Machine extremely quiet and robust. The behavior at high ISO is nothing short of amazing. Cons: Someone storge nose to its small size (for me it's a PRO) is not full frame Opinion: My ultimate machine! Excellent performance at high ISO, beautiful colors (like on all Pentax), extremely quiet (outdoor shutter sound is perceived just for me and I do street is the best .. the first thing that you had only machines without mirror). Coupled with Limited lenses is really compact while being robust and splash-proof and dust. Excellent! |
