Description: Model ID 19095 / Pentax K10D - Digital camera - SLR - 10.2 Mpix - body only - supported memory: MMC, SD, SDHC / The PENTAX K10D digital ... more
Pentax K10D ... SLR features an array of PENTAX innovations including 10.2 effective megapixels and a PENTAX-developed Shake Reduction (SR) system that effectively offers a 2.5 to 4 stop advantage for sharp, blur-free images even under difficult shooting conditions, such as macro and telephoto photography or low light settings without a flash. Also featured is a newly developed Pentax Real IMage Engine (PRIME) designed exclusively for PENTAX digital SLR cameras to produce well-balanced, true-to-life images. PENTAX also incorporated a new high performance 22-bit A/D converter to quickly transfer images with accurate color tones and richer gradation from the CCD to the imaging engine. The new Dust Removal (DR) system incorporating PENTAX-original Special Protect (SP) coating helps keep the CCD surface dust-free, and adds a shift mechanism to shake dust off the CCD. All this is housed in a dependable dust-proof, weather-resistant body construction featuring 72 seals throughout the camera to allow photographers to continue shooting even in dusty or rainy environments.

White balance and the various options available are also woth mentioning. The photographs are crisp and I have blown a few to 12 X 18 and found no noise or distortion. I rate this camera a 5/5. Canon XTI and Sony 700 are not in the running. With this unit you do not need to spend major funds on zoom lenses ( I found a 70 to 300 lense SIGMA unit for les than $250) The manual is ...more

I own the Pentax K10 and I am extremely pleased with the camera. I has so many features found on higher end cameras that, for me at least, this camera wins on all fronts. It takes beautiful pictures and while the RAW format does consume a lot of memory, having an extreme 111 memory card makes life a lot easier. It responds well in terms of speed and offers too many features to list. One feature I do particularly like is the Digital and Optical preview which provides the user with a good idea of the depth of field before the photo is taken.

First, let me just say I DON'T have this but I'm getting one next time I go to the US whilst the $ is on it's knees. I have a load of good Pentax 35mm lenses collected for use with my Pentax, Chinon and Ricoh bodies. As other brands ran away with the DSLR market I wondered if I should get rid of my Pentax lenses and go down the Nikon / Canon route. No more! This camera has won a few photo media awards. If, like me, you've been waiting for Pentax to bring out a serious DSLR, the wait is up. This camera is of course pretty much indentical to the Samsung 10mega pixel DSLR so it makes hardly any difference which one you get. If you don't have ...  Read the complete review
