New 'KP' more of a K5/K3 than an entry model
Choice of about 4 different grips suggests to me that this is a new powerful AF System and they are concerned that the High Torque generated by such a powerful and fast 440VAC AF motor could break peoples wrists :shock: :mrgreen: -- :lol: Hopefully the different grips will come in the box. S...

New 'KP' more of a K5/K3 than an entry model
At least they have had the sense to reintroduce the pop up flash as a cheaper way to fire off camera P-TTL flash... !! Yes, I personally like having a built-in flash, as you say useful for triggering off-camera flash. Unfortunately, the KP does r to have separate AF and AE-L buttons, which is inconv...

New 'KP' more of a K5/K3 than an entry model
New autofocus algorithms (Yawn) (That ones for Mike P!) I gave up worrying about AF speed on Pentax a long time ago now, I have Canon gear for that. Still with Fuji Jules? or have you been through the brands a few more times since we last heard from you 😅 Yeah still with Fuji Mike! Ther...

New 'KP' more of a K5/K3 than an entry model
No IR port makes this camera unusable as far as I'm concerned. On the K-5 I always use a high power Seculine IR transmitter to fire the shutter. -- Algi, just to clarify, I'm confused by your term 'IR Port' ....? I take port to mean a socket which a cable goes into. But the IR remote controls hav...

New 'KP' more of a K5/K3 than an entry model
I think it's still called an IR Port. Probably goes back to HP DOS Pocket PC's that used to call them IR Ports partly because for Pocket PC to Pocket PC transfer you had to align them up about 6 inches apart. EDIT: Just checked here.... https://www.pentaxforums.com/articles/product-updates/penta...

New 'KP' more of a K5/K3 than an entry model
I agree with the retro description for the KP, but the flagship Pentax is still the K-1 (or K3ii if discounting FF.) A flagship description makes it sound like top of the range, which it isn't. If we're heading down that route, wouldn't that be the 645Z? It's an interesting discussion in terms o...

New 'KP' more of a K5/K3 than an entry model
I bought my first Spotmatic body for £120 circa 1968 when the RPI was 17. It's now over 267 that's a 15.7X increase so a Spotmatic today would cost £1884 They should bring it back :shock: and let the moans begin :twisted: RPI http://swanlowpark.co.uk/rpiannual.jsp --

New 'KP' more of a K5/K3 than an entry model
I have to admit I think this looks decent, it looks like it would be a nice body with my 31 or 43mm lenses and maybe a nice size too. That said even the K1 doesn't feel that big with something like the 31mm attached. Stick a 24mp full frame sensor in that thing and I'd be ordering! Looks like a de...

KP...What Do You Think?
Thought i'd start a new thread as the old one was based on speculation and has in any case disappeared out of sight to newcomers. If you'd posted in that thread again it would be immediately back at the top! As to the camera we'll still have to wait for reviews to see how it performs and if it of...

KP...What Do You Think?
Is there any real advantage of a KP over a K-70, given the new camera is twice the price? I don't wish to do the company down, but personally I wouldn't have thought so. Conversely I feel a K-3ii would still be an upgrade over either of them (despite what they say) and that one is £400 less than t...

KP...What Do You Think?
This camera has autofocus in video mode, is that an improvement? Anyway Is their some kind of law which restricts video capabilities in stills cameras to 29 minutes? Regards Yeah, they brought this out in the K-70. Works on a select few lenses. Bit rate, no focus peaking during recording, lack...

KP...What Do You Think?
It's not what I've been waiting for What have you been waiting for? I stopped waiting quite recently, and took the plunge with the K-70. So I will not be down the road of KP nuts. So my novelty is about matching older lenses with the new camera and trying to improve on outcomes as compared with th...

K-3 Firmware update
Hi, has anyone else had any issues after installing the latest update? I did mine about a month ago and this may just be a coincidence, but have noticed lately how my images are not as sharp as before. I also use a K-3II and do notice a difference now between images from both cameras, whereas befo...
