before i finish here is a thumb up 💐
love what you are saying about ovf. wish olympus did not stop there dslr.
now i am a 10 year old mirrorless shooter. but still miss the dslr days.
Is it better than a Fuji X-T3?
It’s going for $900 right now and has a fantastic feature set and by February 2020 it might be even cheaper! There’s also X-S10 That goes for $1000 with IBIS and much lighter body…
Let’s write letters when there are phones! Pentax will probably go out of business!
The EVF is wysiwyg when everything works OK. But I have gone down the road of trusting it too much, where it later turns out that the augmented reality of the EVF didn’t clearly show the flare or the firmware muffed the color translations or color balance and didn’t put the correct image data onto the SD card.
The OVF does give you a little wysiwyg because the effects of apperture are readily apparent. I think that mirrorless is going to win among consumers, prosumers, and even some pros – because it doesn’t demand as much skill.
I also do not get the UHS 1 and low focus points. I have the KP. A capable and great camera. But the focus options are very meh. Why do they do this?
The $5 fiverr voiceover. Nice /s
Rangefinder cameras are still around for those who want that, why not DSLRs? I am sick of the assumption that there can only be one viable technology it is driven by gear-obsessed geeks not photographers for whom the camera is just a tool like a paintbrush.
You show a great lack of intelligence and common sense
My two cameras now both are OVF: Leica M10 and Canon 5D Mk.III. EVFs have improved but they still can’t capture the full range of contrast in a scene, which is the WYSIWYG I’m after.
I’d own a Pentax just for the FA 43mm f/1.9 alone: stunning lens! Yes, Pentax were so pedantic they made a normal lens almost exactly the diagonal of the 35mm frame.
I’ve used Pentax DSLRs with adapted, screwmount Super Takumars and a 28mm Zeiss Biogon. They’re terrific cameras and, if you don’t mind manual focus, you can save a bundle with the old, give-up-nothing-in-IQ-to-bulky-modern-monstrosities screwmount lenses. My first DSLR was a K100D. I took that with me on a family trip to Vietnam (my wife’s from there) just after our twin daughters’ 4th birthday in 2007 (on my first trip, in 2000, I had the Nikon FE I bought in 1982). I had Pentax’s flagship 16-45mm f/4 zoom, a 3rd-party 70-300mm, and a 50mm f/1.4 Super Takumar on an adapter. I’d have done better leaving the zooms behind and just bringing the Super Takumar and the 28mm Biogon (which I didn’t own at the time) because 50mm on APS-C can be a little too tight sometimes. With Pentax, you do have to accept the lack of third-party support (flashes, triggers, AF lenses) and geographical limitations (e.g., where in town can you just walk in and buy a battery).
Crap, I think I’ve just talked myself into re-entering the Pentax system…
Your comment about people buy people is really interesting. Maybe outside the Japanese market is not so important to them? Perhaps the idea of glossy marketing does not appeal to the company, as they believe the product is so good it will sell itself? Or perhaps the Japanese market is allergic to the personality type of the hyped-up sales person? Interesting.
Had a Pentax years ago moved to Nikon but this Pentax is in truth a step back. 800 shots is a lot of shots on one battery charge but my Nikons easily beat that. Two different speed card slots, is that a joke? Was thinking of getting a Pentax again but not this. Of course it all can depend on the image quality and the type of photography it is to be used for which again to me stops me going back to Pentax. This is 2020 the specs should be a lot better.
1600000 MAX ISO means that we should expect an improvement in all ISO range. Each time Pentax increasing MAX ISO in the new camera it also improves in lower ISO. So if previously 32000 ISO was your limit to accept noise now it might be 64000.
I don’t see an issue with one memory card slot being UHS-I. It is back-compatible so you can put there a UHS-II card. When tether you will use UHS-II slot. Why would you need the second slot to be fast?
In other words, the Mk-III becomes a specialty item, like the Z and comes at a specialty price. When it comes out, I would like to see a comparison with the other APS-C brands flagship bodies. A full comparison, feature by feature, function by function, spec by spec.
APSC DSLR in 2020? In that mirrorless bloodbath as you had described it? NO. No, that will NOT help Pentax. In my honest opinion that is. Who will buy that? Stone hard fans will crave for K-1 (yes full frame) all the time. Mind you, I do agree with you that Pentax should stay on DSLR route. Course they tried to go mirrorless and failed miserably. Remember K-01??
But APSC DSLR won’t cut it. Course if APSC, everybody are buying Sony, Fuji or even Canon mirrorless. Instead, Pentax should make a smaller and cheaper version of K1 but still full frame, like Canon did back in the day with their 6D. That could save their sorry butt. Maybe. If they start pulling out some descent lenses.
As a matter in fact, Pentax should reconsider bringing back some of their classic film SLR’s back; in current hipstery times where every second millenial man & women wants to shoot film, Pentax could make money out of it. Course the only other descent new 35mm film based cameras currently in stores are Nikon F6 ($2599) and Leica M-A & MP (cca. $5200). And not all hipsters are rich people.
All in all, as moronic as they are, Pentax’s CEO’s don’t see opportunity for cash grab there. In their place, I’d smell blood in the water already…
Well, nice camera. Will I buy it …? please let me check if I have a space on my shelf ???
It’s too little too late for2021
I promoted mirrorless early (and I still do), but honestly… stepping back… what’s the /real/ benefit apart from shorter flange?
The weight? No mirror?
It’s ~200g difference between a Fujifilm X-T4 and a Pentax K-3.
Neither 200g nor the dampened mirror is going to stop me from widening my horizons.
These are exactly (minus the ovf) the specs of my Sony A77ii.
All points well taken. Interesting to see that you find the OVF an important part of “real photography” in this modern age. Looking at the specs it would seem outdated but i would like to note that every camera model that Pentax has released has been groundbreaking, so I would hold off on judgement until the camera has been tested in the hands of it’s users. With regard to the market concept that you have justifiably note, Pentax have never needed to market their product the way other brands do. The are a small slice of the business with a solid sales goal holding huge amounts of current Pentax users. The real marketing is done via user based strategy IMO. Having said all this, great to see your video. I found it very informal and thank you for the time you took out to do it. Have a great day!!!!
Pentax cannot go mirrorless because Ricoh does not allow any funds to do any R&D. Pentax is only a corpse and will be berried soon. Do You really believe that they make any profit from an APSC DLSR that is already superseded, took 5 years to brood over and pay $2000+ for it? That thing does not even have a flip screen! Only a handful of niche nerds would be dumb enough to do that. You sound deluded.
