Tony released his 1 hour K-1 tutorial,

I think if this was his first K-1 video, he wouldn't have gotten nearly the hate he was getting.

He uses sdp.io as a link shortener. If you use it without any of the paths he gives you, it simply redirects you to his Stunning Digital Photography website. In this case he links to sdp.io/plens, unshortened that leads to https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=fr&tl=en&u=http://www.lemondedelap...K-1,12388.html



He does go out of his way to say that sharpness isn't necessarily the most important thing, simply the easiest to measure. Having the widest aperture lenses and the most megapixels in a camera aren't necessarily the most important things, either, they just give you more artistic choices while being 'easy' to measure.



I agree that Tony undervalues legacy glass, but I think he was just comparing stabilised lenses to lens on a stabilised body in this review.



He does express that he likes this in his initial review.



So is the D810 and a7rii and probably whatever the Canon equivalent is. This feature doesn't differentiate Pentax in the full-frame market, only the APS-C one.



Again, Tony only compared stabilised lenses to lenses on a stabilised body. I think you'd first have to convince him that there are full-frame unstabilised lenses worth having. :lol:

You may be right. He did sound like he just recorded a tutorial video for the K-1, though.

Oops! My bad. I also added the video to the original post, in case people failed to read all 14 pages.

I couldn't decide, so I left that choice purposefully ambiguous. :p

The Camera Store people's review of the K-1 was excellent, by the way. They may have even been a little too fair to the camera, to contrast with Tony's review. Their 'action shot' test seemed to go off without problems too, though it simply involved one of the hosts running towards the camera, rather than across the frame.

In short, he said:

  • The Image Sync app sucks, but comparable Nikon/Canon cameras don't offer wifi at all and he used it a bunch (something is better than nothing).

  • Tethering to a computer is far too slow because the K-1 uses a USB 2 connection, when it should be USB 3.

Youtu.be




A little harsh, but not totally unfair (except comparing weathersealed Pentax lenses to [unsealed?] Tamron lenses).

Edit: Update video.
