Abstract: 또 다시 새로운 포인트를 지닌 새로운 K를 PENTAX에서 선보인다. 촬영 자체의 성능을 더욱 강화시키고, 거친 촬영 상황에서도 촬영은 계속 되어야 한다는 일념으로 세상을 향해 도전장을 보내는 PENTAX의 패기가 담긴 PENTAX K-30이 이번. ...
Abstract: 여름 휴가철을 맞아 방수 기능을 갖춘 아웃도어 성향의 카메라가 인기를 끌고 있다. 소형 디지털카메라나 캠코더는 방수 기능을 갖춘 제품이 많지만, DSLR이나 미러리스 카메라는 상대적으로 적은 편이다. 주로 고가의 제품군에 적용되는 기능으로 접할 기회가 적기 때문이다. 펜탁스 'K-30'은 완벽한 방진·방적을 지원하는 DSLR 카메라다. 펜탁스는 원래 중급형에 해당하는 K-5와 보급형인 K-r 등을 생산해 왔다. K-30은 이 두 제품의 중간 위치에 속한...
Abstract: Instead of trying to be just another me-too camera, the K-30 from Pentax Imaging is trying to be different, and that’s a good thing. First, there was the introduction of the K-01 mirrorless camera and now there’s the K-30 SLR, for when the going gets...
Decent stills with enough light, Quick response (6 fps), Top-notch screen, Weather-resistance construction
Poor video quality, Very noisy mechanical operation, No HDMI out, Poor flash results
If you can get past the lack of an HDMI-out and mediocre video, the K-30 is an okay DSLR, especially for someone with a collection of Pentax lenses. But to be honest, this camera is in no-man's land. It doesn't have all the features of an enthusiast DSL...
Very good still image quality, Good continuous shooting speed and buffer capacity for JPEGs, Weather resistant, Inbody stabilization
No continuous AF during video capture, Video on the slow side to initiate, Might be too small for large hands
With a feature set commensurate with its designation by Pentax as a mid-level DSLR, the K-30 is nevertheless the current entry-level model in the Pentax line. It's a short line to be sure, consisting of the K-30 and the K-5II/s. The K-5 is still availabl...
Abstract: Unlike the K5, the Pentax K-30 has only the one infrared port embedded into the grip; a red lamp also flashes from the top of this window while the self-timer ticks down. Just beneath the shutter button is the front command dial, but surprisingly it's not...
Abstract: In this comparative review, we take a look at three attractive intro- to mid-range APS-C DSLR cameras available as of October, 2012: the Canon Rebel T4i (EOS 650D), Nikon D5100, and Pentax K-30. This isn't an in-depth review of each camera, but rather a c...

Abstract: A favorably priced starter DSLR with some advanced featuresWhat's Hot: Weather- and dust-sealed; 6-fps bursts. What's Not: No mic input for video recording. Who It's For: Shooters looking for a cost-effective, yet rugged, DSLR in the Pentax system.The new...
Excellent photo quality, with low noise until the very highest sensitivities, Solid, weathersealed body, Builtin image stabilization means decades worth of Pentax lenses will have shake reduction, Sharp 3inch LCD offers good outdoor visibility, Optical viewfinder is larger and offers more coverage than competitors, Lots of manual controls and customizable features, Beginners will appreciate auto
Video quality could be better, Below average battery life, Can't shoot RAW images at high speed in burst mode, White balance bracketing would've been nice, Lacks a stereo microphone, and does not support adding an external one, No HDMI output
Conclusion The Pentax K-30 is a very capable digital SLR that arguably offers more bang for the buck -- including a weather-sealed body -- than any other camera in its price range. The K-30's design is a bit more angular than your typical D-SLR, and i...
