Pentax Digital Cameras

pentax digital cameras

I'm not a pro in photography. Until recently I had several point-and-shoot cameras, but none of them made by Canon, Olympus, Nikon, Sony or Pentax. So when I finally decided to buy a DSLR, I didn't have any brand affiliations or knowledge. I did a lot of research about DSLRs, read reviews and looked at various models performances and features. Finally I chose the Pentax K200D and I'm satisfied with my decision. Here are some of the reasons I chose this model from Pentax over other's that I've read about:

1) It's the first camera in its class that is environmentally sealed

2) While some models can only save medium quality JPEG, the Pentax K200D allows high quality JPEG and RAW saving at the same time (RAW+).

3) Like a preview from Popular Photography read, this camera is the mixture of a SLR with a tank. It's very strong and firmly built, and I must admit that I did get the impression that some Canon and Nikon devices were a bit flimsy.

4) Even though some people consider that AA batteries are a downside, I believe this is an advantage. And good 2500mh AA batteries are very cheap and you can find them at every store around, so you don't have to worry about running out of juice.

5) The model supports any Pentax lens that was ever made.

6) In-body stabilization - it's a very neat feature. It translates to the lenses you buy and not once did it save my shots.

7) It is an APS-C sensor.

I have the camera for a few days now and I must say that I'm quite pleased by it. From what I've read on the Internet, its kit lens isn't as bad as those of other cameras and I've "played" with it for a few days. The autofocus system is pretty quick, though I did experience slight delays at low light.

The burst rate is of 4 RAWs or JPEG, but it's ok for the moment. When I'll have a memory card with a lot of memory I'll see if it's an inconvenience for me. I find the grip and handling very comfortable. Also the menu is pretty clear and easy to understand. The manual is huge and explains everything you need to know about the device's features.

I've tried using it in low-light situations, at night, and I got pretty good results. So, for now, I'm very pleased with my choice for my first DSLR.

This world is full of beautiful things. And everyone likes to make those beautiful things their own. But that is not possible. The one way to make that possible is to take photographs of those things. In early days the people could hardly believe that one can create the identical image of something or some person though it is believed that the camera had been invented before Christ. It is not before 5th-4th century when Greek and Chinese philosopher had analyzed the laws of optics, people started to believe the conception of the camera. In 1664-1666 when Isaac Newton told that the white light is composed of seven lights the invention of camera became easier. After that, John Strognofe had invented the fist camera in 1685. The discovery of the silver nitrate's power to darken upon exposure of light by Johann Heinrich Schulze in 1727 has paved the way for the first Panorama opening by Robert Barker. In 1814 Joseph Nicphore Nipce had achieved the first photographic image by camera obscure. The first mass marketed camera was marketed in 1900.
