It may lack the out-right sensor performance of the Nikon D7200 in single-shot mode, but the Pentax K-3 II isn't far behind. Overall then, given the widest range of purpose-built APS-C lenses, the durable build, impressive specifications, and overall capa...
Sturdy, weathersealed build, ample external controls, dual card slots, AA filter simulation mode, intuitive menu system, great value
Video features lacking, no touchscreen or tilting display, no WiFi, no realtime exposure preview
If you own a K-3, it's tough to say the addition of features like GPS and Pixel Shift Resolution are must-haves worthy of an upgrade. With an identical sensor, similar AF speeds with older lenses and similar burst modes, buffer and battery life, the K-3 I...
Abstract: The Pentax K3 II is a sturdy little camera, but sadly Pentax took out the built-in flash and put a GPS there instead. Without a built-in flash, image quality will suffer, especially outdoors since you won't have any fill-flash (critical to good outdoor pe...
The Pentax K-3 II is a fairly minor update of the excellent K-3 camera, principally adding the innovative Pixel Shift Resolution technology, an improved anti-shake system, Diffraction Correction, and built-in GPS (albeit at the expense of the pop-up flas...
Top-notch image quality; Spectacular detail from Pixel Shift Resolution; Better performance than K-3; Geotag images with no accessories; Great ergonomics in a compact body; Clever on-demand low-pass filtering; Broad sensitivity range; Large and bright vie
No built-in flash strobe; No wireless flash support out of the box; AstroTracer function can be finicky; AE Lock button is poorly located; Below-average battery life for a prosumer DSLR; Requires a different battery grip accessory than its predecessors
Nikon's 28mm F1.4E ED appears to roundly complete the company's updated lineup of fast, professional prime lenses. We've already seen some initial images from a Nikon ambassador, but we've worked through a gallery of our own, with a lens of our own over t...
It's a pity we didn't have a better lens to test this camera with because so many other aspects of its performance were very good. The Pixel Shift Resolution function was quite impressive. Like the original K-3, the new camera is a pleasure to shoot with...
No touchscreen or variangle screen, No builtin WiFi, Noisy autofocusing, Only modest improvements over the K3
Pentax's Pixel Shift Technology and similar high-res shooting modes will have their day, but they're not yet sufficiently advanced to make this a must-have feature. That aside, the K-3 II is a capable and well-specced enthusiast DSLR...
