Pentax K10D Review at Steves Digicams

March 19, 2007 | Mark Goldstein | Digital SLR Cameras | Comment |

Pentax K10DSteves Digicams have reviewed the Pentax K10D, which offers 10.2 megapixels, shake-reduction, dust removal system, 22-bit colour, three new shooting modes, 2.5 inch LCD screen and 11 point auto-focusing.

“The Shake Reduction (SR) feature found in the K100D has been further improved, Pentax now claims a 2.5 - 4 stop advantage. We did see a slight improvement but noticeably sharp, blur- free images were more consistently seen within a maximum of 2.5 stops. The SR feature is effective for still subjects and is quite cost effective when compared to the expense of the lens-integral blur reduction solutions offered by Canon and Nikon. The downside is that the SR does not function well when you are panning with a moving subject. Pentax recommends turning the SR off for panning shots as well as whenever the camera is mounted on a tripod.”
