PENTAX KF

Main features of PENTAX KF

compact body

optical view finder

Excellent operability

LCD monitor

Compact weather-resistant design

This compact, easy-to-carry DSLR is designed for all types of outdoor photography. It features dustproof, weather-resistant construction with 100 seals throughout the body and outstanding cold-proof performance at temperatures down to 14°F (-10°C).

Optical view finder

With an approximately 100% field of view and nearly 0.95-times magnification, the PENTAX KF’s optical viewfinder provides a large, clear view of the subject for quick, easy confirmation of focusing and framing.

Excellent operability

Built with the photographer in mind, the grip, control buttons on the back panel and mode dials are contoured to offer optimum comfort and operability, even when wearing gloves.

Vari-angle LCD monitor

The PENTAX KF’s vari-angle LCD monitor allows you to position it at any desired angle, making image composition easier in a variety of Live View outdoor shooting applications, such as high-angle shooting using stretched arms or low-angle.

Main features of PENTAX KF

Duble e-dial

customazation

sensor

prime M II

Double e-dials

A pair of e-dials can be used to control the PENTAX-original Hyper operating system. With a turn of either dial, you can instantly shift the aperture or shutter-speed setting without taking your eye from the viewfinder

An array of customization tools

You can customize the PENTAX KF’s operation to your shooting preferences by assigning desired functions to the set of buttons, including the Fx1 and Fx2 buttons, and three USER Mode positions on the Mode dial.

CMOS image sensor with 24.24 effective megapixels

The APS-C size CMOS image sensor with approximately 24.24 effective megapixels and high-speed 14-bit image data readout, combined with an AA-filter-free optical design, enables the PENTAX KF to deliver super-high-resolution images.

PRIME MII imaging engine and new accelerator unit

The PENTAX KF couples a high-performance accelerator unit with the high-speed PRIME MII imaging engine, effectively minimizing noise at all sensitivity levels and capturing richly gradated, fine-detailed images, even at its top sensitivity of ISO 102400.

Main features of PENTAX KF

SR

Pixel shift

astrotracer

Wifi

In-body SR (Shake Reduction) mechanism

The PENTAX KF features the PENTAX-original, in-body SR (Shake Reduction) mechanism with a compensation effect of 4.5 shutter steps. It works effectively with all PENTAX interchangeable lenses — from ultra-wide-angle to super-telephoto models

Pixel Shift Resolution System

By taking advantage of the SR (Shake Reduction) mechanism, this innovative system captures four images of the same scene by shifting the image sensor by a single pixel for each image, then synthesizing them into a single composite image.

Astrotracer

By mounting the optional O-GPS2 GPS unit, the PENTAX KF provides an automatic tracking function in astronomical photography. The camera calculates the movement of celestial bodies based on GPS data obtained by the unit, then shifts its image sensor in synchronization with their movement.

Wireless LAN function

The PENTAX KF provides a set of wireless LAN functions* to support operations using mobile devices such as smartphones and tablet computers. Since you can transfer captured images instantly to the mobile devices, you can enjoy them away from the camera.

Style: KF 18-55WR kitVerified Purchase
Offers a lot of options and lots of great features is packed in this camera for the price but image quality is no better than the competitors(no better than my canon M200, but way more robustly build). I am shooting in Manual mode all the time. There is no live preview of what the picture is going to be in the live view (except to take a picture to see what the picture would look like), makes it more difficult to get the proper exposition and to focus on bright objects like the moon. For everything else there is the ''Magic Green button'' which suggest you an exposure time that sometime a gamble but it's getting pretty close. I bought it primarily to be use with manual lenses (mostly old Pentax ones) and telescope, seem to work ok with those, at least I'm getting the proper back focus and I'm able to focus to infinity. The Astrotracer is a pretty interesting feature. For a camera advertised for astrophotography i found out that I don't see much more stars in live view than with my M200. But I'm somehow feeling I made a bad decision and maybe time will tell in the next few weeks if I did.
