  give PENTAX a serious look ... By zman on July 17, 2013
Verified Purchase Review submitted for Pentax K-5 16.3 MP DSLR Camera Body w/ 1080p HD Video (PKK5) Pros: Easy To Use, Made For Foul Weather, Buy Extra 2 Yrs War 20, Good Image Stabilization, Good Image Quality, High ISO Performance, Large Clear LCD, Quiet, Solid Built Like A Tank Cons: Pentax Not Appreciated Other Comments: This is my 3rd Pentax DSLR. I keep upgrading bodies. Solid, durable, easy to use, great images ... Able to use all legacy Pentax K mount lenses and even screw-mount if you buy an adapter for $30. Pentax is like the best kept secret. Problem is they're not found in the discount electronic or department stores, so not many people are aware of the brand.

  Love it! By Duncan M. on October 10, 2012
Verified Purchase Review submitted for Pentax K-5 16.3 MP DSLR Camera Body w/ 1080p HD Video (PKK5) Pros: Fast Shutter Speed, Large Clear LCD, Good Image Stabilization, Legacy Lens Support, Ergonomics And Handling, Quiet, High ISO Performance, Good Image Quality Cons: Few Autofocus Points Other Comments: Upgraded from Pentax K-x, and the difference in build, handling, and image character is notable. Haven't been able to test the weather sealing, but know it's second to none. Hundreds of shots and battery is still at full charge. The autofocus lags behind Nikon's, but as I use many MF lenses and rarely shoot action this isn't a huge deal to me. Camera just melts into your hand, weight is beautiful and the shutter is just a whisper. Highly, highly reccomend. Yes, I recommend this product Was this review helpful?     |     Report this review

  One of the best DSLRs By woodfire on July 30, 2012
Verified Purchase Review submitted for Pentax K-5 16.3 MP DSLR Camera Body w/ 1080p HD Video (PKK5) Pros: Good Image Stabilization, Good Image Quality, Easy To Use, Fast Shutter Speed, Large Clear LCD, High ISO Performance, Quiet Cons: Other Comments: I bought this Pentax K-5 camera to replace my K10d ( which is still functioning well but less used due to poor performance under low-light). What I like most of K-5 is it's well-designed body (compact and solid), quite shutter (mirror), excellent IQ @ high ISO, and weather sealing.
