Pentax Q Review Posted

An in-depth look at the Q's performance and image quality

By PF Staff in Review Announcements on Oct 23, 2011

We're proud to be bringing you an in-depth review of the Pentax Q, the world's smallest interchangeable lens camera (ILC) and the first such camera from Pentax.

In the review, we take an in-depth look at the Q and compare it to an Olympus ILC, the E-PL3 to see how it matches up against the popular micro-four-thirds format.

  • How good is the Pentax Q's image quality?
  • Is the new backlit sensor comparable to a traditional four-thirds sensor?
  • Who is the Q for?
  • What's was a hit and what was a miss for Pentax?
