Good image quality, Compatible with K, mount lenses, Good build quality, Wide viewing angle LCD
Slow autofocus, Delay on shutter, Card door flops open, Odd placement of some controls
Image quality on the Pentax K-01 is excellent, with the camera yielding sharp, colourful images, with low noise at high sensitivities. Plus, it has the features to please both beginners and experienced photographers alike. The Pentax K-01 is certainly ca...
As photographers, we should be interested in how our photographs, not our cameras, look and to judge the K-01s appearance in this test would be purely subjective. What is important about a camera, though, is that it feels comfortable for a photographer t...
Great image quality, compatible with existing K-mount lenses
Noisy autofocus that can be slow and is poor at longer focal lengths, no viewfinder possibility, boxy design, lack of prominent grip inconsistent with K-mount concept, too expensive, confused concept
Similar to a DSLR without the mirrorbox, the K-01 is too big to be considered a ‘compact system camera’. It’s a confused product that just doesn’t cut it. Autofocus won’t keep up with competitors, it’s noisy in use and the boxy design lacks the necessa...

Abstract: After the Pentax Q, which left many interchangeable lens camera (ILC) fans puzzled over its small image sensor, the company has made the sensible move by launching the K-01, an ILC with an APS-C-sized sensor. The camera will also be bundled with a skin...
Works with Kmount lenses, Good image quality, Simple, clean design
Unique design may not appeal to everyone, Bulkier than other mirrorless system cameras, Heavy, Pricey
The Pentax K-01 delivers good image quality due to its 16-megapixel APS-C CMOS sensor, and offers great value if one considers the fact that it's the only mirrorless system camera on the market that can support an existing DSLR lens lineup without the nee...
