Pros:Build quality and ergonomics, size, weather sealing, color, noise Iso "normal" non-existent, stabilizer on the sensor, compatible with old optical burst
Cons:a little slow, wi-fi absent, only 11 points of focus and if you really want to be picky is sparse in the video department.
Opinion:I purchased this wonderful camera in March so I can claim to have tested quite well. What is immediately evident is the incredible ergonomics and fits perfectly in spite of the very small dimensions (more or less as big as my old 1100D). I think that the word "tough" is as indicated. It really like that file returns especially from the point of view of color and "cleaning". As mentioned the noise up to 3200 (and beyond) is not very evident, at least not as in other bodies of other brands (tested). I really like the idea of ??having the stabilizer on the sensor that actually (not in reality) should lower the prices of the optics. I find the flurry good for photo hunting although not well tested. But I find it a little slow in the "answer" I do not know if it is my personal feeling or what. Maf points over the competition were little. If we really want to be picky thereemphasize the lack of wi-fi (for those interested, not for me, but if there was I would not have hurt) and not the car of video-maker, little male.rnPer me vote between 9 and 10 . Well done mom Pentax!
Pros:Body quality, perfect ergonomics, superb sensor, full compatibility with vintage lenses, viewfinder clear and ample, quality at high ISO, the overall characteristics of the car pro.
Cons:Lack tracking AF, Lack wifi
Opinion:My first reflex and distance of two years from the purchase are still entusiasta.rnIl sensor Sony is nothing short of amazing, allows a recovery in post stunning without losing quality and can boast of a noise at high ISO really ridotto.rnCaratteristiche by car pro (minimum shutter 1/8000, the screen on the shoulder camera, dual wheel, stabilized sensor) that make it easy and fun to use in every situation. Yet support mount lenses k, high quality home Pentax.rnLa robustness and weather sealing make it a very durable machine that you can take anywhere without timore.rnUniche flaws in my opinion the lack of WiFi that he found it very useful and a autofocus smarter (missing in contrast to the canon and nikon tracking AF) .rnUsata is prices that offer a value / cost absolutely high and make a great purchase. The council.
Pros:Tropicalization to the top (found only in very high-end SLR), good management of noise, dynamic range, ergonomics, low noise ... in short, an excellent camera that can really leave you speechless ...
Cons:against the principal is not called canon or nikon and this is very underrated ... rndifettucci instead are the lack of a flash like canikon and a little slow AF (even if it is nothing alarming)
Opinion:Well what to say, Pentax has produced and still contiuna with k3 churning reflex aps-c is not comparable to any other segment of the same reflex ... is nothing short of outstanding, excellent sealing, noise at high iso well manageable, colors nothing short of fantastic, magnesium alloy body, light but at the same time very solid and ergonomic ... only flaw I found was the lack of a system tailored to the needs of flash "studio shot" ... I highly rnconsiglio to all those who have to choose between the aps-c to consider the pentax because they have nothing to envy to the various canikon aps-c!
Pros:Fast AF as all the competitors, strength of body, simple controls, ability to use the old K mount lenses, ergonomics, waterproof, image quality, silensiosità, made at high iso.
Cons:Menu "one way", battery grip with only one battery, low battery signal not just gradual.
Opinion:I inherited from my father, an old Pentax Super MA, wanting to combine a second body to the 7D I thought, having a complete set analog, I would have been able to continue to use even with digital. Now I am to have a park objectives of good quality (some very good) with the least expense. The machine is fabulous. Defect of the Pentax not have wanted publiciazzare such as Nikon and Canon his machines. The machine in the hands of the solid balanced feel as weights even with heavy lenses. The files are fabulous already in the car. With little PP can get beautiful images and high contrast. The white balance and color in the car is one of the most advanced I've ever seen. Small neo menu, you have to slide it around to get where you want, while in canon is "faster." The use of vintage lenses is a pleasure, simple and very reliable. The high iso then have no history. The ISO 1600 are equivalent to 600 ISO the 7D. Gust high. The advice above all to those who have never tried a Pentax. Is notffatto a toy. The only plastic that is located on the flash pop up ..... Try it YOU WILL NOT REGRET ...... PS: To those who say that there are no targets will list some brands: Pentax, Tokina, Tamron, Vivitar, Sigma, Schneider-Kreuznach lens, Cosina, Carl Zeiss Lenses, Ricoh, Voigtlander, Quantaray etc ... ciaooo
