Quick review

The good: Good image quality, plenty of detail, excellent range (and some unique to Pentax) of exposure controls, body integral Anti-Shake, anti-dust system, build and environment protection, RAW+JPEG mode, good value for money
The bad: Slightly soft JPEG images "out of the camera", slight loss of highlight detail
Verdict: Pentax’s flagship DSLR is pitched squarely at the high-end or advanced amateur user and boasts an excellent specification and unique-to-Pentax technologies
You say: No reader reviews yet - be the first.
