Abstract: Although the Pentax K-5 II and K-5 IIs have now been replaced by the Pentax K-3, we've analyzed the two models with a range of lenses from both Pentax and third-party makers and thought the results would be of interest to our readers. The information is a...

Abstract: Continuing our series of evaluation of lens systems we've assessed a modest range of Pentax and third-party lenses for their optical quality on the firm's new flagship Pentax K-3 model. As the replacement for the K-5 II and K-5 IIs, the Pentax K-3 has a n...

Abstract: Announced in June this year, the K-50 is an accessibly priced environmentally sealed DSLR featuring a built-in stabilization and a 16-MPix APS-C size CMOS sensor. As Pentax has yet to introduce a full-frame DSLR to the range the K-50, like others before i...
small, physically light and solid housing at the same time, splendid image quality in the frame centre, very fast and accurate autofocus
significant distortion for such an angle of view, noticeable coma, very high astigmatism, image quality on the edge of the frame near the maximum relative aperture could have been better, a bit too high vignetting.
The comparison of pros and cons of the tested lens seems to be not exactly favourable for the Pentax. The problem is that it could be a bit deceiving. The lens had a lot of average results and, for its dimensions, overall it fared quite well. What's impor...
While significantly cheaper than the original FA Limited lenses, the main drawback to the DA lenses is their price when compared to prime lenses from other manufacturers. For example, the Pentax 40/2.8 has a street price of $270. A Canon 35/2 is a stop...
Abstract: The Pentax SMC-DA 21mm f/3.2 AL Limited is a very good lens but it is not as special as its longer cousins (specifically the Pentax FA 31mm f/1.8 Limited) nor is this really possible because of the increasing design problems when pushing things toward...
Abstract: Die Limited-Baureihe kann mit einer extrem kurzen Bauweise glänzen: Gerade mal 25 mm tief ist das Objektiv. Das fordert bei der Optik etwas Tribut, denn auch diese Festbrennweite kann die Leistung des Zooms im entsprechenden Bereich nicht erreichen. Im...
Abstract: Pentax är väl rustade i vidvinkelområdet, och denna optik som motsvarar 32 mm finns med både silverfärgad och svart finish för att kunna matcha kamerahuset. Den är liten och lätt och gjord av metall men verkar onekligen, liksom Pentax andra ......
