Pentax K100D Review at DCResource

Mark Goldstein | Digital SLR Cameras | September 1, 2006 | 1 Comments

Pentax K100D DSLRDCResource have just reviewed the new 6.1 megapixel Pentax K100D DSLR camera.

“Photo quality was excellent in most cases. The K100D took well-exposed photos with vivid colors and pleasing sharpness—this camera is clearly aimed toward the consumer set. Noise levels are nice and low through ISO 800, and ISO 1600 is still usable, with ISO 3200 only for desperate situations. Purple fringing and redeye were not a problem. The 18 - 55 mm kit lens isn’t the greatest, with noticeable vignetting in several of my real world photos. Remember: when it comes to lenses, you get what you pay for.”

Those ISO 800 shots are VERY clean! I think by now the often-mentioned CMOS advantage has vanished, and CCDs are at least as good.
