K-x mention in D3S review

alehel · 02-16-2010, 10:49 PM

In DPreviews review of the D3S they actually mentioned the Pentax K-x at one point.

Quote:

The D3S enters a different marketplace than the D3 - one where even entry-level cameras like the Pentax K-X offer ISO sensitivity settings that would have been unheard of a couple of years ago, and one in which video is rapidly becoming the norm for high-end DSLRs rather than the exception.

It's nice to se them mentioning a Pentax camera rather than another Nikon or Canon camera.

Here is a link to the page I found it on Nikon D3S Review: 23. Compared to: Digital Photography Review

You're going to make one non Pentax person on this forum very very unhappy.

A cynic could say that it is a backhanded compliment. Like they are saying: "even the [lowly] k-x has good ISO sensitivity nowadays"

True....but the D3 is clearly worth less that $550...
