Help me to decide. K-3 or stick to K-5 ?
Smeggy please understand the difference between the K-5 and the K-5iis is remarkable. I have had the opportunity to use both cameras side by side in the field and to be quite honest what the "classic" produced left me decidedly underwhelmed to the point where I avoided using it if I could. The diffe...

The 5 and the 5ii have the same sensor and the AA filter so the image will look the same.

The 5 and the 5ii have the same sensor and the AA filter so the image will look the same. Very similar, but we don't know what other tweaks were made, so the K-5 II may have slight advantages in this respect, or maybe not.

The focusing speed and accuracy in general use and in particular in low light situations makes the K-5 II my camera of choice with my K-5 being relegated to backup status. The differences in IQ between the K-5 II and the K-5 IIs are not enough to justify my spending the extra money on the 's' var...

How many mkiis owners have used a mkii alongside the mkiis? I only ask because I'm thinking about getting a used one to replace my mki body and don't see enough in ISO improvement to warrant the extra expense of the k-3 Before buying the K-5ii I'd pixel peeped many images from both the K-5ii and the...

I still dislike the colour rendering of the K-5's, with their tendency to a magenta cast. That must be a peculiarity of the Sony sensor since the K-3 is the same. Not sure that this is 100% correct. I think those who have used a K-3 alongside a K-5 or K-5II will know that the colour rendering on th...

I've noticed that magenta cast too using certain old M series lenses with various bodies when an otherwise identical photo taken with ano...

I don't understand all this talk about colour rendering: whatever you want a file to look like as far as colour is concerned, can be done using a custom WB in-camera, or quite easily adjusted later in Lightroom or most other editing programs. I certainly would not base my choice of camera on how it ...

I think I'd do it slightly differently to be honest. I don't think Pentax should aim to compete with Canon or Nikon particularly - I don't see how they can. I see them as a more of a niche player - perhaps Subaru would be the automotive equivalent: slightly quirky, bloody good at what they do well...

One of the problem with Pentax is the younger generation of Amateur and professional photographers. Its a different story for old codgers like myself to carry on about Spotmatics and LX's and MX's and how good Pentax is. We remember and reminisce and have our dreams about the good old days. ...

I've heard the argument many times. Give a special discount, even make a loss, because there's a bigger order coming later. Unfortunately all that tends to happen is we make a loss. Later, it's a bigger order all right, but it's still give a special discount, even make a loss, because there's a b...

The Sony A7 with Pentax Ltd Lenses samples we've all seen now, has shown exactly the improvements FF can bring. Regardless of technical specs these images simply just look much better than any Pentax APS-C camera can produce. Except for more severe cropping, I haven't seen one image taken by a...

Smeggy wrote: Because of the above, my argument is that the future of the DSLR in the hobbyist market is Full Frame. 100% agree with this. The only reason we have smaller sensors in SLR's is because at the start FF couldn't be done. Now it can. DO it!!!!. I hope if ever Pentax release...

Axel would have needed a 1.5x longer lens only with the same MP count sensor as his 24Mp. With a 36Mp sensor then that the same focal length would give the same result. It is the photographer not just the camera. But the better comparison is to look at the work of those who have changed cameras...
