I'd see a sensible progression as being ks-1, k60/70?, k-3, k-FF, 645z That reads to me as a range that doesn't overlap and allows for sensible progression if required. Throw a mirror less in there perhaps, or not it the above does th basics exceptionally well. The Q is in there, which I ...

Is this body confirmed WR yet? And with sensor stabilisation?

Is this body confirmed WR yet? And with sensor stabilisation? WR has been mentioned but I have seen nothing confirmed, there is an SR badge on that prototype, so I think you are safe there!

Can't you opt to fix or float the ISO in most modes though anyway? Fully articulated screen gets my vote. Had one on a canon bridge camera nearly 10 years ago and it was great then. My cheap £40 cell phone has wifi and gps. Seriously don't think these things add as much cost as people want ...

One more image has surfaced, this time from the other side... I could see this getting a bit of traction to be honest, would have to try it first of course and wait for the inevitable first production run malodies and of course, Seeing what the K3 MkII brings to the table over the original, first! ...

There was no grip option for the K-30/50 from memory, as that was one of the model placement/pricing item trade offs Jules. If this is the successor then there may well not be a grip, but look for that in the K-3ii? The K-30 had a smaller battery mostly as it was shaped to include the AA batter...

Thanks Jules, excitement levels rising again in anticipation of a sensible video/stills dslr combo beast :D:?: 8) No no no Richard .... You've still got 2 years use and life-cycle left on the K30 before you're allowed another camera 8) Agree - Must, not, get, too, excited... I'll be honest thoug...

2) IF the sensor stabilisation is real again during video then I WILL advance my 2 year plans quite considerably. That features is genuinely worth a lot to me, as right now I unfortunately have it turned permanently off, having been burned by it with ruined footage a few times too many. You know I ...

Pentax at CES...
And Ricoh really want to put their name on that video? :roll: It's been hard to convey to all what Movie SR does, but this video is just so perfect as a demo of why it's so bad, I'm really glad it's come to be. That jello/warping of the display blocks in the middle of each stand is a prime example...

I'd limit this discussion to only models of 24mp sensor resolution :wink: My personal viewpoint on the 24mp models mentioned in the article is this. I've not tried the Canon 7D II which I'm sure is a great camera, but I have tried the NIkon D750. I have to admit to liking it a lot. For landscape pho...

I'd limit this discussion to only models of 24mp sensor resolution :wink: I own two, one because I need a back up for my full-frame camera and the other because I wanted to. It qualifies me to make a judgement about them. I will just say that the advanced amateur Nikon APS-C user has been totally...

Why Pentax needs full frame
I'm loving my recently acquired K3 and am staggered by the sharpness of the images I'm seeing even compared to the K5. I'm watching the full frame possibility with interest although in truth I'm getting better results from the K3 than any camera I have ever owned - including full frame film cameras...

Why Pentax needs full frame
I'm intrigued as to how much of the production cost of a digital camera is the sensor nowadays, from pinhead size in a phone to the mentioned 645Z. Does anyone know?

Why Pentax needs full frame
I'm intrigued as to how much of the production cost of a digital camera is the sensor nowadays, from pinhead size in a phone to the mentioned 645Z. Does anyone know? Depends upon a number of factors. If one is producing a pocket digital camera such as a Sony pocket sized digital camera; sorry can...

Why Pentax needs full frame
Whether people actually really need FF ...that's another argument altogether. Absolutely! I can't make anywhere near the best of APS-C - and so I would not be going FF anyway FF offers some technical benefits, it's not just about am I good enough?! FF is typically better in low light (with pi...
