Review on Weather-Sealed Black Pentax K-70 DSLR Camera Body Only by Somchai Tameeyasen ᠌

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Dissatisfied with this product, bad to use.

It's a real shame that Pentax screwed up the solenoid. Maybe even intentionally. There are very few A-lenses left from the film era. The modern park of optics is kutsi, and the prices are simply crazy, unrealistic for a 2022. If I buy it, it’s only cheap, at the risk of getting into money if I can’t fix it. I'll buy it because I like the picture, even despite the specific handwriting - black dots in white circles at 100% magnification.

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.
