| Latest Review Posted | Pentax K-30
Excellent camera overall, bought it after a K200, so I let you imagine the improvement I felt. My usage is totally amateur, to shoot landscapes, buildings, portraits mainly. I am not at all interested in shooting sports, or birds so super fast autofocus is totally optional.
I bought it mainly to improve the ISO performance as I felt was the big problem of the K200 especially for inside shooting. The high ISO performance is, believe it or not, even better than that of the K3 !!
I do not know other brands but I read a lot about the K30 and comparisons to other DSLR's, and I didn't regret at all my choice. The image quality is excellent. Conbined with my Sigma 17-70, it delivers amazing quality photos (you can see examples in my flickr).
Using is very easy, feels impressively solid. Honestly, given my usage, I couldn't find any cons aside of the battery life (400-500 shots), but you can simply buy a backup battery for 10 bucks.
I do not hesitate to recommend this DSLR to anyone that wants good ISO performance, image quality without beeing very AF demanding. |
