Pentax Cameras - An Exclusive Name in the World of Photography

The world is full of beautiful things. Everyone likes to make these beautiful things their own. But this is impossible. The only way to make it possible is to photograph these things. If you are not a professional photographer or even an amateur photographer, then you may not want to spend a lot of money on an expensive digital camera equipped with a lot of features that you don’t care about.

For people like us, who regard photography as a simple hobby to cultivate their interest in this exciting activity, Pentax cameras with basic functions and stylish appearance are more than enough to try all the functions.


It is very important. When you make a selection in the store, the possible details and other relevant details taken by your camera. Pentax cameras are indeed very reliable, leaving proud owners almost no room for complaint. But from the customer's point of view, it is better to test the characteristics of the camera and make sure that the equipment you plan to purchase will not cause you unnecessary trouble, so as to be safer.

There are many companies that manufacture cameras. One of the famous companies is Pentax. Pentax cameras are made in Japan. They are one of the leading manufacturers of digital cameras, digital SLR cameras, compact cameras, point-and-shoot cameras and accessories. Pentax also produces a waterproof digital camera called Ocean Blue.

Personal opinion: I have always had a weakness for Pentax cameras. They are definitely excellent value for money. They are very effective in taking high-resolution photos in all light conditions. Whether you are taking pictures in a dimly lit room or on a sunny playground, or taking pictures on a balcony at night, you can ensure that your image quality is perfect.

Pentax K-1: Sensor Switch Intelligence

Pentax k-1 camera is equipped with a new autofocus module (called SAFOX 12) with 33 focus points, 25 of which are cross-shaped. When used with F2.8 or faster lenses, center 3 provides higher accuracy, while center 25 continues to focus down to -3EV. Then there is the pixel shift resolution mode, which improves the color resolution by moving the sensor by one pixel to shoot four consecutive images, effectively canceling the Bayer color filter array and reducing the noise in the average image. As this list of spec highlights should be clear, K-1 makes full use of its mobile sensors. In addition to an image stabilization function with an impressive 5-level rating, the camera also provides many other smart functions.

Pentax K-1: Core Competition

We chose to put Pentax k-1's viewfinder size at the top of the specification list for a reason-this is because we think users from existing Pentax cameras will prefer it. In general, the most prominent feature of pentax K-1 is not the clever use of sensors, but Ricoh's obvious focus on core photography capabilities. This is not to say that K-1 has no occasional decorations at all. In addition to the smart sensor shift mode (some people, especially landscape photographers, will definitely like it), the most obvious one is its "Cross-Tilt" LCD screen. Photographers may like the camera's smart function system, which adds a third command dial to the upper right corner of the camera and defines its functions through additional controls. The three dials can directly control the three parameters of the camera, and you can customize one of the parameters without going to any menu.

Pentax K-1: Pricing

Pentax k-1 is a very similar model that we saw at Ricoh. The company’s models usually include high-end features (dual command dials, prism sights and weather seals), and the price is lower than yours. You need to spend money from others. One of the DSLR manufacturers obtains them. This dual-spherical, all-weather sealed, magnesium alloy and image-stabilized full-frame camera? The list price is a very competitive $1799 for the body only. From this perspective, this is US$200 lower than the release price of Nikon’s most basic D610, and US$300 lower than Canon’s initial expectations for the EOS 6D, which means that it is only US$100 higher than Sony’s pricing. s a7 II The image is stable.

Pentax K-1-Lens Series

Today, Pentax offers a combination of compatible full-frame lenses, including some screw-in FA prime lenses from the film era and the popular 31, 43 and 77 FA Limited. mm from the early 2000s. However, the company has begun to develop a series of more modern "D FA" zoom lenses, including 15-30mm F2.8, 15-30mm F2.8. 24-70mm (both of which are suspiciously reminiscent of some Current Tamron brand zoom lens) 70-200mm F2.8 and 150-450mm F4.5-5.6. For now, though, those looking for a modern, fast-focusing cousin will be disappointed.
