John Riley reviews Pentax's lowest priced DSLR model aimed at enthusiasts that's still in production. The KF might be Pentax's least equipped model, but with a 24mp sensor it's far from being a compromise in what really matters, image quality.
The potential for a DSLR revival could just be around the corner as some photographers seek more of a photographic experience over Mirrorless. John Riley compares the latter premium APS-C models released - Pentax K-3 III, Pentax K-3 II, Pentax K-3 and Pentax KP.
With over 15 years in continuous production, John Riley revisits this versatile Pentax all-in-one walkaround solution. Does the Pentax 18-135mm match up to modern expectations? With sample photos, MTF & CA charts along with further reflection John provides the answers.
