Hello to all,
I am a long time Canon user, came across a K-30 and wow!
I am looking to move to K-5 or K-5 II, because the battery life (short) and shutter noise (loud) on the K-30, the price difference between both bodies is >$100. I have compared both bodies on paper at dpreview.com and snapsort.com, however I am looking for advise from people that have hands on experience.
From reading it looks like the K-5II has a better screen and AF in low light.
dpreview shows in the comparison that the K-5 has better:
- Metering & focus accuracy
- Image quality (raw)
- Image quality (jpeg)
- Performance
- Movie / video mode
Current lenes that I have:
- Pentax DA 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 ED AL
- SMC Pentax FA 50mm f/1.4
- Tamron AF 28-75mm f/2.8 SP XR Di LD Aspherical
Thank you for your help and input.
