Description of Weather-Sealed Black Pentax K-70 DSLR Camera Body Only
Overview of the Pentax K-70 Weather-Sealed DSLR Camera
The Pentax K-70 Weather-Sealed DSLR Camera, also known as the K-70 Camera, is a powerful and versatile device designed for photography enthusiasts and professionals alike. With its exceptional features and robust build, this camera offers an immersive experience and excellent image quality. In this article, we will delve into the characteristics, benefits, and potential applications of this remarkable digital camera.
Key Features and Characteristics
The Pentax K-70 Camera boasts a remarkable 24.24 effective megapixel APS-C AA filterless CMOS ...
Pros
- The main thing when choosing a new camera was the possibility of using it in field conditions. And one of the parameters should have been moisture protection, since the camera will be used in extreme conditions. During the use of Pentax K-70, it justified itself. Lenses do not fog up. We use it in snow and rain, as well as in case of a sharp temperature drop (for example, after leaving the caves). I also like the quality of the pictures. For non-professionals like us very well. There are also many interesting shooting modes in the camera.
Cons
- The battery is draining faster than expected. The camera is positioned for outdoor activities. But being on an autonomous trip far from civilization, where there is nowhere to charge the battery, you have to take a few spare ones with you. I would also like a larger range of accessories.
Pros
- I had a K-30 - I really liked the picture - especially in terms of noise. And this is his older brother, so to speak, with 24 pixels. Tests satisfy on all 100. + Flip screen.
Cons
- Let everyone trumpet that the camera is set to self-destruct, like the K-30 that I dealt with / this also applies to the K-50, and two other similar models. It is unlikely that any of the normal people will buy, so that later they will obviously fix it with their own hands (and it’s not yet a fact that the problem does not return). But the one who considers himself a Kulibin engineer - let him take it, because the carcasses, because of this jamb, have become very cheap (relative to the rest, taking into account the collapse of the, of course). K-30 flunked red; and green was grey. This should have it too. It seems to be possible to eliminate the glitch with the shutter - by continuous shooting, or by using batteries . - I hope.
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!
Pros
- weight, price, image quality
Pros
- Comfortable in using. Holds the battery for a long time.
Cons
- For me, as a beginner, this camera is completely satisfied.
Pros
- 1) In the previous review, it was already written about the low noise level. This is really one of the main advantages of the model, it allows you to shoot with fast shutter speeds under worse conditions and use darker optics. 2) Stabilizer, allows you to shoot handheld up to about 1/8 sec. (at 50mm), no need to buy expensive optics with stabilization 3) Screwdriver, you can use old and / or inexpensive AF lenses 4) When using manual optics, there is confirmation of focus in JVI, and illumination of the flu zone and an increase in the central area in Live View (LV) 5) Focusing on the center point is very accurate even in difficult conditions 6) The housing for the SLR is very compact, while there are a sufficient number of buttons and knobs, which allows you to conveniently control the camera. 7) The grip is very comfortable for me (hands are quite large), in winter you can easily take pictures even with "inflated" gloves
Cons
- 1) There are only 11 AF points, and they are located very strangely - there are five of them horizontally, and it turns out that the 1st and 5th are very close to the edges, and the 2nd and 4th are to the center. 2) In the focus point selection mode, it is difficult to change ISO 3) There is a significant delay in LOS between the shutter release and the shutter release. 4) Tracking AF in LV works very peculiarly 5) Video is weaker than competitors 6) No top screen 7) The back screen is not touch 8) Terrible Wi-Fi Smartphone App
