Pentax K-3 Review

General

With the Pentax K-3, Pentax has introduced a new generation of impressive, remarkable and powerful camera, in the shape of its latest 24 megapixels APS-C CMOS sensor with straight-forward grip. The camera embodies a reasonable amount of upgrades to enhance performance, operation and shooting options. Without a doubt, while it may look like just another Mid-size SLR, Pentax has packed a reasonable amount of firsts inside the Pentax K-3 incredible body. More or less, the improved camera itself feels like a top-shelf imaging device, with a consistent, forward-looking and modern design and comfortable dials. In hand, the Pentax K-3 feels great and surprisingly never hurt my wrist at all carrying it all day long. Most notably, one of the biggest reasons to move up to the Pentax K-3 from lower-end cameras is the modified autofocus system with a immense 27 focus detection points. A wide ISO range helps the photographer master any lighting situation. From a clean ISO 100 to a versatile 51,200 (boosted), the Pentax K-3 provides small amounts of noise and maximum quality. The camera works with D-LI90 batteries, which has enough for 560 shots. Despite the high photos quality, the Pentax K-3 nowadays isn't the best gear for shooting video. Pentax K-3 has a Pentax KAF2 lens mount, and currently, there are 144 native lenses available for this mount. The Pentax K-3 is a stunning camera and tool in the hands of the right photographer. Reasonably it has all the modified upgrades that we were waiting along with a few powerful features in a body that feels well made and solid in hand.
