Отзывы о Фотоаппарат Pentax K-1 Mark II Kit

The Pentax K-5II is an absolutely terrific camera. It's probably one of the more underestimated dsrl's on the market. The size is perfect. Control buttons and wheels are perfectly located and realy intuitive to use. It has all the functions you need. Picture quality is grate and colours are very good. Functionality hasn't disappointed me yet. You can use all of Pentax K-lenses (even the old M42 lenses with an K-mount adapter ring. Then with manual focus and exposure). I substituted the usual kit-lens for a Sigma 17-70 HSM which is grate lens.
The only draw back with Pentax is the rather limited supply of third party lenses and add-ons.
I can also recomend the Metz 58 AF-2 speedlight as an alternative to the original Pentax. It functions fully with the Pentax P-TTL protocol and has the advantage of firmware update functionality.

It is easy to use and makes fantastic photos! My husband says it was a great purchase, and he likes it, too!

I had real problems deciding on the right camera for me but from how it appears, I have made the best decision ever. This camera is a machine and I am yet to even understand its major functions properly. I rivalled professional cameras just yesterday at the Uni dissertation party and my pictures are getting better reviews on Facebook than theirs. I need a Zoom lens to actually maximize its capabilities. I recommend... buy buy buy.

I have always wondered why Pentax isn't considered as seriously as it deserves. Most of my peers don't even know about the brand! Yes, they have a zero market visibility in India, and that's another thing I wonder about :PMy father being a photographer, I am glad I was exposed to Pentax from an early age. Very glad!K-5 is one classic camera that brought to people's notice yet again that Pentax is not a bridesmaid to other brands, it can produce quality cameras like no other. I have been using this camera for a year now and my love for it only grows stronger by the day!I am one happy man! :D

It's certainly everything I've ever wanted in an aps-c. Low-light AF is superb. It feels great in the hand and also feels rugged and has some weight to it. It feels well balanced even with a teeny 50/1.7 mounted and all the controls are where you want them to be. High ISO is great, however shadow noise is noticable at ISO 12800+, I can pull off clean shots at 10k ISO with all that lovely aa-less image quality left. Speaking of IQ, it is quite a jump for pixel peepers like me. Hairs and specks look more defined. JPGs are surprisingly good for a Pentax, which is good for people who can't afford giant cards . SR is also working its magic better than ever, I'm handholding a 50 at 1/5 no problemo. I will update this review with some shots later, but let me say that I truly think that this is the best aps-c out there and will be for time to come. I've never used something that just felt natural like this

I've only had the K-30 for a few days now, still exploring the multitude of functions and features, but out of the box it's is a really great photographic tool and it performs much the same as the more expensive K-5.

The K-30 has a great set of still shooting features, and is passable for movies, but the overriding benefit is the truly excellent image quality. From ISO 100 - 800 JPEG images are pin-sharp and noise free whilst from ISO 1600 - 3200 there is plenty of detail and noise just adds a subtle graininess. The RAW files are great to work with as you can pull out extra detail out of them in Photoshop, and the camera saves RAW files in the universal Adobe DNG format. You can also convert the last JPEG image taken back to RAW with the press of a button which is something very useful and unique.

In terms of handling, the sculpted K-30 is comfortable to hold and shoot with. It is slightly heavier than the usual `Canikon' especially with my Sigma 17 - 70 mm lens, but it feels well-made and solid, certainly not 'platicky' like the Sony SLTs and of course it's weather-sealed. Having dual thumbwheels is something that is not usual on an a sub-

I upgraded from a K-X and boy this is a HUGE upgrade! I never use my k-x anymore and love everything I can tweak with this camera. The only thing I am not too fond of would be the auto-focusing system. It really doesn't focus all that well in lower light. For this reason.. if you are upgrading or just thinking about purchasing into the Pentax system.. go for the K-5 II. I heard they fixed the auto-focusing system and would LOVE to have that fix. If you are just thinking about Pentax.. DO IT. It is a great system and lenses are so much cheaper. I find myself with plenty of older manual lenses where the quality is amazing! I have personally bought 6 manual primes for under $100. They are some of my go-to lenses even though they are manual focus lenses.

Am learning to use this camera at the moment, it was a gift from my wife, to stop me being bored when I retire.

Have previously owned a Pentax camera and appreciate the quality of the photos. The sharpness of details is very good and the use of the camera is not complicated.

I am very happy with this Camera.It takes Nice pictures,very comfortable grip ,not heavy and most of all I don't have to be worried about whether conditions any more with W.R. Zoom Lens attached (which I had to purchase separately,very well packed from Camera Centre).Thanks to Amazon for very good service.

Beautiful photos! Lots of options!Love the TAv button!Intuitively designed to change settings easily and logically.Ruggedly built, solid, weathered sealed! Took photos on a snowy day and it performed easily in cold weather!Lenses for this camera have a nice feel, are beautiful, anything but flimsy.Performs well in low light!I have not been disappointed!You would pay nearly twice the amount for a dslr of this caliber!

I would consider myself an enthusiast photographer. Really started getting into photography in the past couple of years and slowly climbed the ladder to where I was comfortable buying a dSLR. After many, many, many hours of research I kept coming back to the K-5 for my first serious camera. I also researched the Nikon D7000, the Canon 60d, the Nikon D90, Nikon D3100, and Canon T2i. I wasn't invested in Canon or Nikon yet, so it wasn't going to be too brash of a move to go with the underdog - Pentax.I received my first K-5 and it had "the stain" on the sensor, so it went back. The replacement was an even older serial number and also suffered from the stain. I was still committed to the camera, so I tried for a third time. The third body did not have the dreaded stain, but did have a couple of dust motes on the sensor that could not be removed. As I write this, the body is on it's way to Pentax Repair to try and clean the sensor. This may not sound great for Pentax quality control (QC), but the camera itself is great enough to warrant putting up with these frustrations.Before sending in for repair, I was able to spend a few days with it during the holidays, mostly taking portraits and such. The first thing that will jump out at you about the K-5 is its intuitiveness. It is incredibly easy to set up the menus and adjust settings. I previously owned two Canon's, including the S90, and separating myself from the Canon menu style was no problem at all. The button layout is very simple and easily accessible, even when shooting.The other immediately apparent perk of the K-5 is the way it feels in your hands. You can tell right away that this thing was constructed for toughness. No squeaks, no rattles, no loose hinges. There is a "clunk" when you rotate it, but that just the image stabilization system (I believe). It's just built very well. I have very large hands (usually wear an XL in gloves or XXL) so the "compact" size of the K-5 was an initial concern. This isn't a problem because the ergonomics are so well done. The grip is almost like a pistol grip and just fits like a glove.Pros:- Great ergonomics- Very good high ISO performance. Noise is noticeable at 3200, but not bad- Very fast autofocus. Rode as a passenger around the city snapping pictures and the system was incredibly fast locking on and getting a true focus.- Metering system is very true. Haven't tweaked this much, but haven't had to. Light looks very natural- Solid Build- Quiet. The shutter is exceptionally quiet.- Image quality. Really looking forward to getting the body back to try out more.Cons:- Autofocus can be a little slow in poor light- The digital preview button is slightly confusing- Does not come with a screen protector (surprising for a camera intending for brutal conditions)- Kit lens is okay, but not the best.- The shooting mode wheel lock is a little annoyingIn conclusion, the fact that I'm still praising this camera after two returns and a repair pretty much says it all. This is a very capable camera, that I'm dying to delve into and explore. I would recommend this to anyone, but especially those you haven't invested in Canon or Nikon yet.Also, I can't say enough about Amazon's customer service. My hat is off to them.

The K5 is a great upgrade from my K10. Smaller, lighter, quieter, faster burst, faster autofocus, great results at high ISO, built in HDR, etc. Lots of bang for the buck, and built like a tank

I had been used to using a canon a720is, which I thought was OK when I bought it, but the jump in quality, both the camera itself and image quality has surprised me. During normal shooting, it never seems, so far to falter in its exposure, focus and ease of use. Takes a bit of familiarisation on the controls though. I will buy Pentax again.

Always been a Pentax user....best "feel' of any DSLR, in my opinion. The K5 11 certainly lives up to early expectation....well laid out, intuitive controls and feels solid. Looking forward to putting it through its paces.

I have just upgraded from the K-10 and the first thing you notice is the weight - so much lighter does not feel as solid but still seems quite robust.
Performance wise is superior in every way great low light and a nice touch is that with the K-10 the generic lenses did not focus true, with the k-30 the fine adjustment is very easy to use and the lenses focus accurately.
I would highly recomend this camera as an upgrade from the K10

I just received my camera and I'm not sure about the quality of the pictures, they mostly noisy blurry, The lens would probably be the problem since it is just a basic cheap 55mm lens. Not sure if I need to return it or not , Though I've read good reviews about this camera

My first DSLR was a Pentax Kx which is a great camera, but the K5...wow. This camera is amazing! If you are looking at Canon or Nikon DSLR's you owe it to yourself to look at this camera before you buy. In my opinion there is no better camera value!

Pound for pound this is the best entry level digital SLR camera on the market. Since the Pentax brand is not as strong as Canon or Nikon you get much more for your money than you would with these other brands and the quality of the camera is on par with them as well for a relative novice like myself.

The look and feel of the camera is really good, quality of pictures excellent, easy to use with a relatively simple user manual. Unless you're going pro right from the start, this is a great camera to start with. One other key advantage is the availability and low price of second-hand Pentax lenses.

I love my Pentax K5. Sure, it does have a few quirks like no autofocus in video, but other than that, this is my baby and I carry it around with me everywhere. So far, I've shot super sharp video with this, using an external microphone, I've done time lapse photography using an external interval timer (though there's a built-in timer already in the K5), and I've photographed an outdoor concert venue for 6 hours in the rain with my 70-300 lens, though my lens was not water resistant. My K5 did come with a WR 18-55 lens, which I was pleased with, because that's how they are supposed to be shipped. I've seen some sellers, particularly on Ebay, who don't ship the WR lens with the K5, and that 'cheap' price that seemed like a great bargain ends up being anything but a bargain when you have to pay and extre $160-$200 on a basic lens that is considered a "kit" lens.I'm very happy with my purchase and I'm a loyal Pentaxian.

Bought to replace a Samsung GX20 (Pentax K20D), the K-5 II feels familiar and comfortable to use and is far superior at high sensitivities as well as having more responsive autofocus. The only thing stopping me from giving it 5 stars is the lack of a swivel screen.

I like white pretty much and even through it is a little small to me, but in some other ways I can say it is pretty cute tome, my lovely!

I have been shooting a KX for the past two years, (by far the best digital camera I have owned 'til now). It was time to move up in features, image quality etc. After reading a lot of reviews - including hereon Amazon. I decided on the K5. I could write a one word summary - Wow! It was delivered in one week, (I live at the end of a very long pipeline). Good, solid feel in the hands. All commonly used controls are exactly where they need to be. I've had it three weeks at this point. Have used it in conditions from sunny spring afternoons to snow and freezing fog. Great image quality and no mechanical issues.I also shoot a lot of parties, shows, etc. I much prefer ambient light to flash during these events, (this is where the KX "Stage Light" program really excelled). Obviously no pre-set on the K5. However the low light capability is outstanding. Fixing the aperture and shutter speed and letting the camera decide on ISO works well. AS an aside - the auto white balance seems to be much better than it was on the KX. No more orange glow to tune out in post.So, yes I like it and would recommend it to anyone looking for an upper end DSLR. No way you will get this quality at this price level from Canon and Nikon. (And no way you can still use the lenses you bought in the 70s - 90s on your new Nikon/Canon.)

I've only had this camera for a few days which I purchased together with the pentax 40mm limited lens, and I love it. I've taken some great indoor low light shots, and when the weather finally brightens up, will be testing it outdoors too. It is quite a complicated camera but it comes with a handy book manual, so will be spending the next few days going through it. This is my first DSLR camera so I can't really compare with others. However, I spent a long time researching other cameras and this one ticked all the boxes for me in terms of abilities, photo quality and price. The 40mm lens is also awesome, great for portraits and general walk around shots.
