Отзывы о Фотоаппарат Pentax K-1 Mark II Kit

I bought the K5 after using my K20 for a couple of years. The K20 is very very good, the K5 is an order of magnitude better. Low light performance of the K20 was just OK, the K5 is a real standout. It's taken a few days to get used to the menu and control differences in the K5 but Pentax has done a very good job of keeping the user interface friendly and close to previous models. I shoot predominately with Pentax prime lenses but find the new WR 18-55 zoom a very capable kit lens, sharp, quick focusing, and with the weather sealing a nice addition to my kit. Videos are very good although I don.t use the feature often. My only very slight complaint is the lack of continuous focus in video mode. Although, with Pentax lenses with quick shift focus this if not too much of an issue. All-in-all I am very happy with this camera and would recommend it to friends and family without reservation.

There is not enough words or stars to describe this camera. I've used both the k10/ 20d cameras and the k5 shines sweet! The kit lens alone could be in a category all it's own. The camera with the kit lens focuses quick and the quality of the photos is superb! I'm a big guy with huge basketball hands and the camera fits nicely in my hands, which was a concern when I was thinking of purchasing this camera and I must say I'm not disappointed! The 7fps is awesome, I love taking pics of my 4yr old playing tennis and with the increased fps the camera has already paid for its self! The down side is you will need to get plenty of memory cards because if your like me you will be holding down the shutter button often because it's so much fun! I absolutely love taking pics with this camera! If you are looking for an awesome camera to take around with you without worrying about getting it wet and taking superb pictures then look no further! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

After saying I couldn't be bothered lugging around a DSLR and all the gubbins I was seduced back by my daughter's Olympus 520 DSLR. While I could get on with the Olympus' clunky menus I did love the feel and image quality. So what DSLR to buy? Traditionally I have had (and still own) several Canon cameras and I also liked the look of the Nikons. A bit of research soon indicated a problem. Both Nikon and Canon have the image stabilising built into the lenses so every new lens costs more because you have to keep buying the same thing. Also both manufacturers have changed their lens mounts several time so old lenses do not fit new bodies. It didn't take too long to short list those manufacturers whose image stabilisers are built into the bodies and who support the original lens fitment. There was only one: Pentax. I tried them out at my local camera store and the K-r was the best compromise on price and features. The K-x lacked a lowlight focus lamp and used the flash which I really dislike and the K-5 and 7 were lovely but way too expensive. That left the K-r.
After 7 months of ownership including a trip to Spitzbergen and shooting at -32C I can safely say I am still delighted with the camera. It offers everything a keen amateur needs and will also work in idiot mode for non photographers. My only regret is buying the twin kit lens set as I have just replaced both lenses with a new Sigma 18-200mm lens which is better quality and avoids excessive lens changing. I have also bought and sold a number of older lenses to experiment with and the most I have paid for a lens is

If the old saying "you get what you pay for," is true then the Pentax K5 is worth every penny. It is not an inexpensive camera. It is an excellent camera with the highest resolution in it's class. It also takes excellent hd video.What blows me away is the high iso quality. Usable pictures through iso 6400. You can take quality pictures that you never could before. I really can't say enough about how good this camera is at higher iso settings. It is amazing.I debated between the K5, the nikon d7000, and several other cameras. I have owned quite a few dslr's in the past few years. The K5 is the best at taking quality pictures.The video does not have autofocus. Which to a photographer is not an issue. Don't buy a dslr to take video. You should buy a dedicated video camera for that. That being said it is nice to take some short videos when needed. The K5 has awesome video quality. I previously used the Sony a55. It took good pictures and great video - because of it's autofocus ability. I sold the a55 because the photos lacked the depth I needed.I bought a dslr to take photographs. The K5 is the best non full frame dslr on the market. If you are serious about photography and are willing to make the investment, the Pentax K5 is a great choice. This is a pro grade camera with pro quality image quality. You would have to pay more than double the cost to get a full frame camera that beats it (not counting the lenses).

When the Kx arrived, K7 owners who were more than content with their current bodies coveted the superior high-ISO (low light performance) capability of the Kx. At least I did. And while the K7 was a capable tool, I often found myself compensating for its weaknesses (which were limited to high ISO and autofocus continuous (AF.C) performance). Not so with the K5.I won't go into the specifications since those can be found elsewhere but I'll give my overall impression - what I like and what could be better:+ Great ergonomics. Love the compact, solid body which is identical to the K7 save for a heightened knob and elongated AF lever. I was even able to use the same split prism focus screen I had purchased for the K7.+ Fantastic high-ISO performance - clean and offering far more flexibility than the K7. I'd try never to breach ISO 800 on the K7 whereas the K5 is routinely pushed past ISO 3200. While I wouldn't give it equal footing to a full frame camera, it's arguably the best APS-C out there in this application.+ Outstanding dynamic range -- shoot in RAW and leave your graduated ND filters at home.-+ Improved auto-focus, especially AF-C compared to the K7, but not quite on par with either the D300s or 7D in AF-C.+ User-friendly, easy to navigate menu system - white balance adjustments are a breeze.+ Good WB and JPEGs "out of the box"-+ Yes, 1080p video but at 25FPS vs. 24 -- surely a firmware update in the future- Audio records at 32KHz sample rate- Only has a single SD/SDHC slot - would prefer dual with Compact Flash- Limited to 1/180 X-Sync speed - but this is ample in most scenarios- Images shot in portrait don't autorotate on playback - but did on the K7(?) - again, a likely firmware update+ Blissful near-silent shutter+ Compatibility with all those great manual K-mount lenses of yore.Although I'm a long time Pentax user, I considered and evaluated both the Canon 7D and Nikon D300s without bias. While both are outstanding DSLRs, I preferred the Pentax K5.An all-around excellent camera and a joy to use. A noteworthy upgrade.

This is the best APS-C camera on the market. Its built like a tank. Weather seal is awesome. Feels amazing in your hands. Has way more features available in the buttons on the body than most cameras which rocks because you don't have to go through the menu for everything. Handles high ISO amazingly. Beautiful images. Great contrast. I couldn't be more happy with this camera. Look no more!

Very good camera, very solid build and weather proof. Good ergonomics fit my hand nicely, good button layout easy to reach when shooting. Image quality is excellent, I've had it for about a month, shot a wedding last week with it. Was very pleased with the quality and color of the images. Very good in low light situations with out flash. Did some test shots at ISO 3200, they look like shot I them at ISO 400 very little noise.Great camera, upgraded from K10, well worth the money.

I recently purchased the K-5 to replace my K-10. I won't repeat what other reviewers say about this camera except that it is a great DSLR. I do a lot of macrophotography of insects and now I am not afraid to use the TAV setting. On my K-10 I tried not to shoot much above 400 ISO. Now I can set my F-stop and speed, allowing the camera to adjust the ISO to fit the settings, even going up to 3200 ISO. The noise is minimal and the pictures are certainly usable at that ISO. I also like the new menu layout, I find it much easier to navigate than the scrolling menu of the K-10. The menu is a little different though, and some of the button settings are a little different, but I am getting used to them.I have tried the video a little and wish there was a dedicated button for it instead of the dial. The pictures are good though- mostly of insects on flowers. I find focusing a little hard in sun light when looking at the screen.I highly recommend this camera, especially if you have a K-10, K-20, or similar model. An excellent upgrade and camera.

It took me a while to decided between the the Canon 60D, Nikon D7000, and Pentax K-5.Having used all 3 cameras, I'm glad I chose to go with the K-5. The image quality is comparable to that of the D7000. In fact, even in program mode, pictures come out great, without being too hot, or to dark. The colors are vivid, and the low noise at high ISO is better than what I expected. The focusing is really fast, but not always accurate. I'll give the AF 4 stars. Overall a really great camera. Satisfied customer.

Hi I switched 2 months ago from a Canon 7D with a 24-105mm L lens and I have to say that I have no regrets, I wanted a lighter camera that was rugged and at the same time took great pictures and had semi-pro features, at the beginning being a Canon user and before it a Nikon one I was a bit skeptical but after using the camera for a bit I started loving it, I mistook it's simplicity to it being inferior but I was wrong it only makes it more user friendly, such a nice camera to use, the 7D is a great camera but besides it being heavy and almost giving me hernia it also feels like a computer with the K5 I can now concentrate on photography. I use it with 40 and 70mm limiteds, it was as well a learning curve using primes but no regrets whatsoever, good job Pentax, maybe a full frame in the future!

The Pentax K-5 is slightly more compact than similar Nikon and Canon cameras while offering more options and features. It is a well thought out, digital photography tool. There is something special about using a high quality camera, the feel in your hand, a solid mechanical sound, the way it comes to your eye. This camera has all of it. And hey, you get to use Pentax lenses, the best glass in the world.

This is the camera that DxO Labs gave the following rating for:"No need for suspense: this new 16.3 MP sensor is simply the best APS-C we have tested so far, sometimes able to compete even with very high-end full-frame cameras.The overall score of the K5 puts it in the lead with 82 points -- more than 9 points better than the D90 or the Alpha 55, and 16 points ahead of the Canon 7D or 60D. The K5 is literally the best APS-C performer for each segment, even in low ISO".See their website at[...]I am no professional. I had used a basic DSLR prior to this the k2000. So this review is based on someone upgrading from a beginner SLR to a more sophisticated one.Pros:Low light: This is a camera that takes great low light pictures, you can push the ISO up pretty high and still get great pictures. This was the biggest reason for me to upgrade. I had a hard time taking pictures of my kids in various performances with terrible lighting conditions. Obviously one needs a good lens. But with my old camera I had to throw too many away. This camera combined with the DA 50-135mm lens is one terrific package for such situations.Weight/Size: this is the most compact camera at such a level that you will find.Weather resistant: This is a weather resistant camera! Combine this with a weather resistant lens and you are all set.Electronic Level: I thought this was a gimmick but after using it for a few days, I find it indispensable to take level photos.User Selectable Focus points: these are standard in expensive cameras, nothing special if you have used such cameras before but for somone upgrading I quickly found out how convenient this was.Shake reduction: Pentax unlike Nikon/Canon has shake reduction built into the camera, so any lens you put on it has shake reduction function.Lenses: Pentax has small pancake lenses called limited lenses. Try these if you are new to Pentax. They are superb and great to walk around with without looking like a dork.Cons: Expensive...

Their are 3 reasons I say this:1) The image quality is surpassed by none! The dynamic range is unbelievable at iso 80. Plus the high iso is astonashing: I can shoot up to iso 3200 no problem and even use iso 12800 when needed!!!2) The build quality is amazing. Built like a brick, incredibly small, and can survive a monsoon! I took this thing into the alaska rain and survived wthout a sweat3) The ergonomics make this the easiest camera to use if you know what you are doing. If you like to constantly change the EV, ISO, shutter speed, aperture, continuous shoting, or manual focus then this is the camera for you! I remember being able to do all of this in like 10 min.LOVE MY CAMERA!!!

Almost went to Nikon, with the purchase of Nikon D5100. It was an excellent camera, but after looking at my photos taken with it and my Pentax Kx, I still liked the Pentax BEST! Now I own the Pentax K5 and am very excited about this feature and weather proofed camera. Great feel with this camera and all the features to do what I want in photography. This is a pro camera at a reasonable price and only the photographers limitations will hold me back. I would highly recommend this camera to any serious photographer.

I bought this camera mainly because I want to shoot in the rain.It turned out to be one of my top 3 fav cameras. I put it at the same level as the incredible canon 5d mark II in many aspects. (the focusing is better than 5d2 for sure)Here are my fav features of the camera:1 Low shutter sound (really low)2 Good high ISO performance. (I think about 1/2 step away from 5d2)3 Great feel in holding it in my hand4 Amazing control!!!! This is really cool as once you get to know the control, it flows super wellI highly recommend this camera.

This camera is very light yet sturdy and weatherproof. Its fast as lightning, accurate auto-focus, very quiet shutter, and tons of advanced features. I love the feel of it, and so far all my pictures have been sharp and well-metered. Now the price has dropped, its a great value for a semi-pro camera

I am not writing a long review. So I simply just have to say is, I love this K-5 camera and I am glade I got it. I waited till it went down in price..I will say though, she is fabulous matched with the right lens for low light photography....

I bought this camera with the kit lens... after having used the DA* 50-135, I know the kit 18-55 will be redundant soon as i save $ for the DA* 16-50... You're probably on the right track here looking at the body only version...As for the K5... its excellent. The k7 was (still is for most practical purposes) an awesome camera. Great features, customizability, built like a tank... perfect size, weather sealed, 100% viewfinder... k5 is all this with a significantly better sensor, arguably the only lacking aspect of the k7. Apparently there's a new autofocus system too... so far so good.This one ended up as my choice over the Canon 7D after a fair amount of research for my first DSLR. Reason being the high ISO performance it claimed... Happy with the choice after using it for a few days. I'm thrilled with the kind of shots I'm able to take handheld in a dimly lit indoors (1600-6400 ISO, 1/15 -1/60th shutter, f3.5 on the kit lens or 2.8 on the DA*)... in-body image stabilization comes in handy here as well.... and a good lens, i.e. all the more reason to go 'body only'.About me... a photography enthusiast, architect by profession and travel at every chance I get... learnt to shoot pictures on a Pentax spotmatic... switched to a Nikon n85 a few years before the film era begun fading. Have used and or . Highly recommend the K5... wish it was a little cheaper. 5 stars none the less... Have to add, I was initially concerned about the choice of pentax lenses but after some looking, they seem to have decent options with the DA* and Limited series. Definitely give this camera a serious look (save the $ and go for k7 if not too concerned about low light).PS - Don't like the pentax software at all! I use aperture instead, which has its own set of flaws including having to upgrade to version 3 to read pentax RAW...

I started with K10D,K20D,K-7 then K-5.K10D is really good at LOW ISO and COLOR is great but bad HIGH ISO, bad AWB and SLOW FOCUSK20D is really good at resolution and texture but focus is still oofK-7 better body design and menus but worse high iso than K20DK-5 put all the good things together and fixed the bad.SLOW Focus, Inaccurate AWB/Metering, and BAD HIGH ISO NOISE are the things in the past.Now with K-5, you can take pictures without worrying those things. It is such a big relief to know that I can take high contrast shots without worrying about exposures.Now, I can concentrate on framing with a peace of mind.Good Job Pentax. I always knew you had the potential to make such a wonderful tool. For that, I will give you my loyalty.

I've only had it for a day but I am already in love. Sturdy construction, weather sealed, gorgeous photos and a wide range of Pentax lens compatibility. Seach professional reviews for yourself and you will find that the K-5 simply out performs Canon and Nikon offerings in it's class. If you are moving up but haven't already invested in a lot of glass for your Canon or Nikon you need to take a serious look at this camera. Don't be a Canikoner... be a Pentaxian!

If you own one of the previous models (mine was the K-10), you are going to enjoy this camera. It has many great updates to the previous models (better low light ability, bigger rear display) without sacrificing the ease of use of previous models. Be warned though, this camera comes with the biggest operations manual todate; ie. the features built into this model have been dramatically increased over previous models.

I don't have much to add to the other great reviews. I've always been a Pentax fan (my first was a KX 35mm, and I loved it). I love this camera and the vast amount of functions it has. It's a great buy! I also bought a zoom lens for it. It takes remarkable photos! A+++++!

My first SLR some 50+ years ago was a Pentax and we owe a lot to those cameras today. I've owned or shot with every brand that you can name and I'll take the K-5 over all the others. The N & C brands have more lenses but not necessarily better lenses, I like the Pentax glass. I have a 40 year old (?) 55mm f1.8 mf lens and it's really sharp. The K-5 has good HDR builtin and IR. Rain proof, built like a tank, every lens I put on it is stabilized and Did I mention the built in level or the sensor shift. Try that with other brands. Buy it if you want the best.

Pentax K-5 and Nikon D7000 (Tie)16 MegapixelsThe 16MP, $1,500 Pentax K-5 has the best overall image quality of any APS sensor camera, regardless of price, according to DxOMark. But just barely. As far as its DxO test results go, it's in a virtual dead heat with the Nikon D7000. While its ISO range "only" reaches 51,200, its signal to noise ratios virtually matches the Canon EOS 1D Mark IV at all speeds, and will deliver acceptable noise at ISO 1600. All this plus Pentax's ruggedized body makes this camera well suited for a wide variety of indoor and outdoor shooting conditions.
