Kx image samples on Imaging-Resource - soon

UnknownVT · 11-02-2009, 10:28 AM

I regard the Test Image samples on Imaging-Resource.com as some of the most useful - as they are standardized and consistent - making it very easy to directly compare one camera with another. They even have their own Comparometer to do this on-line (unfortunately they don't include the low light set which I use a lot).

Since I was interested when the sample images for the Kx would be available I wrote e-mail and just got this reply.

Imaging Resource Site Email - Pentax Kx samples?‏

We have a Pentax Kx on order, should arrive soon. We'll be posting samples images as soon as they are available.

The test images are up at Imaging Resource.com

Thanks for the notification. From what I can see in the comparometer it looks like the K-x is possibly even sharper than the K-7. It for sure has less noise.

I wish they kept the K10D and K200D samples up.

I think it would be a wise move for Pentax to use this sensor in their future cameras. I'd really like to see a K200D replacement with the features and quality of the K-x.
