So how good is the K-5 sensor
When you look at this thread,the image quality and the ability to cope with noise, this is the camera which should have followed on from the K20!.....must leave the people who bought the K7 pretty deflated!:cry: I'm not. I bought the K7 for FPS. I've had high ISO, low noise since May 2009, (D700) th...

I certainly found the K-7 to be no worse for high ISO noise than the K20D and in general use it was a much more reactive 'snappy' body for want of a better description. Still a worth while improvement on the K20D in my book.

So how good is the K-5 sensor
I've just done some continuous shooting tests on the K5, this time with a San Disk Extreme 111 card. No difference whatever from the basic San Disk card. In RAW and on the Hi setting still just 3 rapid frames then lock up while the buffer clears. The hand books says it should deliver approx 8 frame...

Roll on the new firmware someone has written about in this Forum because at these speeds the K5 will not be much use for fast action such as sports coverage. David Stick in there David, the firmware revision will sort out this issue. Meanwhile, explore the other qualities of the K5. Best rega...

So how good is the K-5 sensor
I've just done a double check - Unlocker was correct. I assumed the lens correction facility would be OFF until I turned it on. In fact it was ON. I took it off and the camera fired away with 10 continuous shots in RAW and it seemed to go on forever in JPEG. All these were shot at 200 ISO on a San D...

No problem, the issue came up a lot with the k-7 as well!

I fear I'm missing out on something here. On my monitor there's nothing resembling jaggies or aliases or whatever. David I've just looked at your original image David.... it's 1024 pixels wide so it must have been reduced by the board software. The original hasn't got jaggies and on a differen...

[quote:3496ace15f="Algernon I've never noticed it on other photos, but most are posted 800 wide which saves them being reduced again. I'm glad it had nothing to do with the K-5 :lol:[/quote] It seems sighs of relief are due all round. David

Hello - I'm new to this forum and have joined as I've just bought the K-5. Only taken around 100 shots, but it looks really good - low light is fantastic.

Just seen - compare RAW at high ISO and the K5 appears to be significantly better than the Canon D60 or the Nikon D7000 (by at least 1 stop)

i prefer the size of the k20, but found the performane of the k7 to be the same except low light af and af speed was better. but the k5 is looking awsome or high iso, its just the af speed that bothers me know(needs to be faster than k7),

Just seen - compare RAW at high ISO and the K5 appears to be significantly better than the Canon D60 or the Nikon D7000 (by at least 1 stop) looks very close between the nikon and pentax and the 60d.

Just seen - compare RAW at high ISO and the K5 appears to be significantly better than the Canon D60 or the Nikon D7000 (by at least 1 stop) Going by that comparison @ ISO 12800 I dont think the K-5 outperforms the D7000. Looks very very close to me, infact I may even give it to the Nikon.

in raw the k5 has a lot less colour noise than the d7000, but more than the 7d, compare it to the 7d which looks better here than both, but also the nikon and canon are sharper. in jpeg the at iso 12800 the k5,d7000.7d look close but i would say the 7d is first then the 7000d then the k5. also i...

It's seriously splitting hairs to judge a winner (IMO).
