The new Pentax K-x occupies the sweet spot between the entry-level K-m and prosumer K-7 cameras, combining the ease-of-use of the former with many of the advanced features of the latter. The 4.7 fps continuous shooting speed, speedy and accurate 11-p...
The Kx’s image quality really stands out, and the kit lens is superb. We also like the build quality, which feels tough, and the ergonomics. And, while its video capabilities are a little hit and miss, the ability to fire off a 720p video with such...
The biggest problem the Kx currently has is its price – it’s brand new and that means you’ll pay around £600 for the version we’ve reviewed, That puts it at a slight disadvantage against the excellent Nikon D5000 and Canon...

Excellent image quality in low light conditions, Incamera RAW conversion and two RAW formats, Decent build quality
Compare Prices, The Pentax Kx is squarely aimed at the entrylevel market. It's one of the smallest DSLRs on the market, and it's ideal for any photographer who prefers to travel light. Pentax has designed a camera that's easy to use and feels solid and well built, But how does it compare to its rivals?
The Pentax K-x is an attractively priced entry-level camera with exceptional image quality. I'd give it five stars, if it weren't for the inexplicable exclusion of AF points in the viewfinder. The 11-point AF system is fairly configurable, but, without...
Very good noise profile , Nice-size viewfinder for its class , Relatively speedy
Doesn't display AF points in viewfinder , No HDMI connector , Slow Live View autofocus , Mediocre LCD , Unreliable image stabilisation
A fast, inexpensive dSLR with better-than-average low-light quality, the Pentax K-x nevertheless has some flaws, such as unreliable image stabilisation, to watch out for....
The feature list on this camera puts its competitors to shame. No one else has anything like the HDR expander. The ability to record RAW files in Adobe’s universal DNG format is a boon. Image quality is very good. Continuous shooting mode is up to n...
Only time will tell if the screen printed control labels rub off too easily. Mirror/shutter slap is unrefined.
The K-x is remarkably well featured for the low price. Pentax make the competitors look like miserable penny-pinchers with their cut-down entry models. The beauty of this camera is that no user will be frustrated, wishing for this or that additional fe...

All in all, a great camera but it's expensive at this end of the market. If you add another hundred pounds then there are excellent mid-range DSLRs such as the Canon 500D and Nikon D5000 to choose from. However, if you want to tread the line between value...
