Pentax Full Frame, Will it ever happen.
Yeah it looks quite a bit bigger to me too, I was taking Kevin's word for it as someone who had handled both cameras. True about Canikon crop sensor cameras... try comparing the 7D for instance -http://camerasize.com/compare/#154,378 Appreciate you taking my word .. but for the non-believers the ...

Upgrade to K5IIs from K5 now or wait for something better?
It's a purely personal decision so this isn't going to help but I don't see any problem in the images the K5 produces, infact I'm still impressed by the detail it captures and handles PP very well so I'm not convinced that the finished/processed images would be any better with a K5 or a K5iis. Pe...

Upgrade to K5IIs from K5 now or wait for something better?
Thanks so much for replies. Having read these and ones form the other forum, I am clear that the K5IIs does offer a real world improvement over the original K5. Two factors influence me. The first is that I am sometimes frustrated by the AF when shooting moving objects which is much better than t...

Upgrade to K5IIs from K5 now or wait for something better?
My take on it is simple, the k-5 still gets in the way of your photography where the mkii and mkiis don't. What do I mean by that. All my lenses on my mkii are razor sharp with no adjustments needed. Secondly the af hardly hunts due to a lack of light or dark subjects. My mkii focuses instantly o...

Upgrade to K5IIs from K5 now or wait for something better?
I upgraded from a K20D to a K-5 to a K-5 II and I can say that the difference in AF speed, accuracy, and in low light (read dark) of the K-5 II/K-5 IIs is well worth it. Since all of the K-5's share the same sensor, I've not noticed any improvement in resolution, but then I wasn't expecting any. ...

Isnt the pentax equivalent to the d800 the 645d??? Looks a different beast to me. 645D is medium format, while the D800 is a FF DSLR. 645D seems specialist to studio type work with a limited ISO range while the D800, is well a high end FF DSLR for a wider range of uses with a higher ISO. Well acc...

Well according to DXO the 645d is just 500 pixels wider sensor than the D800e Actually it shows the horizontal pixels of both is 7424, but resolution isn't everything. The pixel pitch is significantly different. John K

I don't agree on the landscapes comment though, infact I think entirely the opposite..for me Pentax bodies and their lens line-up seem more designed with the landscape photographer in mind...excellent dynamic range of the K5, weather proofing, solid build, plenty of wide angle lenses. Simon Simo...

I agree Smeggy, but who would have thought when the 645d came out an FF sensor would have been launched with a pixel density that size? I think any new medium format body would have to have at least 80 megapixels just to keep ahead of the FF pack...

Sensor IQ is not governed purely by the number of pixels, so 500 here or there makes little difference. What does make a huge difference is the size of each pixel and the spacing between them. 12.1Mp 35mm sounds about right. Now where do I get one of those? Best regards

My understanding is that diffraction effects are a factor of the angle of light rays onto the sensor plane - the greater the angle then the more effect is seen (the effect being reduced 'sharpness' - reluctant to use that word though!) Smaller apertures cause greater angles of light rays, but at ...
