I have not regretted the purchase, everything is fine.

PENTAX K-70 is out of competition in terms of price and quality in comparison with other manufacturers of DSLRs! But the camera is intended all the same mainly for studio shooting! I bought with a branded adapter for the Zenith lens "Helios -44-2" and every time in order to remove it I have to carry out a micro operation to remove it from the camera mount! Being on the street the task is simply not feasible! Therefore, every time I remember the Pentax engineers who came up with such a lens replacement process with a not very good word! The mirror in such budget models is yesterday, and if a mirrorless camera is released on this K-70 base, then I will be among the first to buy it! In the meantime, we will save money for SONY A6500 and shoot with Pentax K-70!

Pros

Great camera ergonomics! The most compact SLR camera on the day of purchase August 15, 2022!

Cons

Almost on a sunny day, it is impossible to correctly adjust the video shooting parameters and make a high-quality video recording! Unfortunately, this applies to all SLR cameras! The reason for this trouble is the lack of an electronic viewfinder for cameras! In the 2022, there are practically no optics for Pentax, I bought in Petropavlovsk Kamchatsky the only Tamron 18-200 zoom lens in the window and realized that I could throw it away without regret!
