So how good is the K-5 sensor
The strangest thing is that the D7000 and the K5 use the same sensor, there can never be so much difference in it if they are RAW files. seems to be more to noise than just the sensor... there are a lot of other electronics under the hood as well... that is sorta like thinking the speakers are all ...

So how good is the K-5 sensor
its like the nikon d40 and k100d super same sensor, but the pentax is better, all comes down to how its tuned, nikon cant tune it to well as they want to stick it in the new d300(when it comes out then it will be better than the d7000.:wink:

So how good is the K-5 sensor
Seems to be a lot of chatter about sensors? Years ago the same argument was on film brand. What changed? I tend to think that the sensor does not make the final image. Although the D7000 uses the same sensor, it's a different animal to the K-5. If all EXIF data were removed from images, ho...

You can see the difference between cameras with the same sensor because it depends also upon the processing. Fair enough with JPEGs, but also RAW capture is not totally free from processing either. The output from the various photosites has to be combined and mixed up to make a continuous image a...

So how good is the K-5 sensor
Although the rules are being rewritten yet again with the new models, the general principle will be lower MP count = lower noise. So the *istDS is less noisy than the K10D. However, as the electronics improve also, this may well mean there are now lower noise higher pixel density cameras, at l...

And it looks good too and you can get it in different colours, quite funny how successful that is. As mentioned above with the reference to speakers, there's more to an image than a sensor. That said, there are those that think CCD are better than CMOS? I'm one of them, for lower ISO which i most...

More Comparison Shots, Well as this thread concerns the K5 sensor I thought it wise to add these here instead of starting yet another K5 thread, apologies to Mike for the hijacking. Just been out in the garden between the showers for some ISO test shots with the K5, see what you think. These...

Alan where do I compare them with, you call them comparison shots after all? :wink: The higher ISO do look soft though.

V. nice Spider, K5 ISO 6400 = K7 at ISO 1600, more or less. Talking of anal-retentive pixelpeeping, I wouldn't mind seeing 200% crops at 1/25, 1/80 and 1/250 - just to check there are no shutter-blur issues!

You compare them with each other and with your own cameras images taken at the same ISO, then you discover you need a K5:wink: I wouldn't mind seeing 200% crops at 1/25, 1/80 and 1/250 - just to check there are no shutte...
