Review on 📷 Pentax K-7 Body Digital Camera by Wiktor Michalski (Li ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I am one hundred percent satisfied with the purchase, I recommend this product to everyone.

There are absolutely no words to describe how excellent the camera is. After carefully examining the K-7's operation and its baptism by fire, I was able to identify only two of the aforementioned drawbacks. Pentax is an engineering marvel who can and SHOULD build a monument. The K-7 is much more than just the greatest K-mount camera (by a wide margin), but those who fall prey to bad marketing won't grasp it. Marketers' victims frequently select bricks with a high rate of burning.

Pros
  • 1) After K10D, sky and earth AF speed and accuracy, especially in low light (the green backlight also helps). Although the AF speed is slower in AF-C mode (only 2-3 fps as opposed to 5 fps), it nearly does not smear. 2) It found out that the camera was light (it feels much lighter in the hands than the K10D) 3) Ergonomics almost entirely without problems (but you still need to get used to it) 4) The video is of excellent quality, and the audio is excellent (especially if the camera is dustproof) 5) All-weather, frost resistance, dust and moisture protection (Pentax trademark), with DA* series lenses and new WR kits 6) The job is moving along at a commendably rapid pace. 7) Construction quality that "you can't dig in with all your will" (remember the magnesium casing) 8) It's hard to think that engineers were able to fit so many important things into such small spaces. 9) While shooting handheld video without jerks, the image stabilizer is very effective (4 steps is not the maximum). 10) "Pentax"-branded colors (I never had Photoshop) 11) Exposure metering is incredible (faces are not overexposed in 99% of circumstances). 12) auto BB is superior to K10D, on a strong 4. (sometimes it "warms" indoors, but there are a lot of BB settings) 13) screen versus K10D, once more, heaven and earth: viewing angles, colors, and detail are all excellent. 14) The battery has a large capacity; two of the three battery divisions are still usable after 1200 frames and viewing the resulting screen. 15) A normal battery and six AA batteries are used to power the buttblock. 16) TOTALLY deactivate the noise reduction (instead of soap we have all the details, and noise can be removed even with the built-in noise reduction, even in post-processing) 17) Viewfinder at 100% 19) The level of the horizon will be helpful when shooting landscapes, and the stub will correct the weak slope. 1/8000 shutter, 100k actuations. 20) For lenses from the DA series, distortion and XA can be automatically corrected.
Cons
  • 1) It takes some getting used to picking focus points by pressing the arrows without placing your finger on the OK button; 2) there are occasionally issues with the operation of extreme AF points.
