Image Compare feature for K5iis.

Hidrieus · 10-09-2019, 04:02 AM

Do you think that there is any chance that Pentax returns the 'Image Compare' feature in a future update for the K5iis? How and where can I communicate my desire to Pentax? Do they accept requests from customers? Does any later model after K5, including the K1ii, have included this feature?

Since the last K-5iis firmware update was about five years ago, I would say there's little chance.

I think it's rare for individual input to affect corporate decision making, but you could try to contact Ricoh Imaging or express your wishes here:

If you're happy with your K-5, perhaps you could watch the Marketplace here and buy yourself a backup body?

Edit: And as far as I know, the K-5 was the last model to have Image Comparison.
