Pentax K-1 Full-Frame DSLR Camera (Body Only)

Revised Content:

The PENTAX K-1's state-of-the-art 36.4-megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor is engineered to deliver exceptional performance in high-resolution 35mm digital photography. This sensor, unlike a typical full-frame sensor, incorporates PENTAX's unique performance features and characteristics, making it more than just another full-frame sensor.

The improved noise processing algorithm in the K-1 provides unparalleled performance in low-light situations and when using high ISO settings, which are critical for good performance. The camera boasts a remarkable sensitivity range of up to ISO 204,800, thanks to the combination of the new large-pixel, full-frame sensor with high noise resistance and the powerful PRIME IV processor.

The K-1 features a newly developed 5-axis SR II (Shake Reduction) system that compensates for yaw, pitch, roll, vertical, and horizontal camera shake, providing up to 5 shutter steps of compensation effect. Since the SR system is built into the camera body, it works seamlessly with every K-mount lens, enhancing the overall image quality.

Complementing the SR system, the K-1's Astro Tracer feature, which combines the SR mechanism and the GPS function, enables users to easily track and photograph astronomical objects. Additionally, the camera's sensor-based moiré-reduction system provides the same level of moiré reduction as an optical anti-aliasing (AA) filter, without the softening effect. Users can adjust the level of moiré reduction from OFF to Type1 and Type2, and bracketing of these settings is also available.

For improved usability in low-light conditions, the K-1 features strategically placed operation assist lighting on the camera's body. The camera is also meticulously sealed in 87 different locations, ensuring durable usage even in harsh weather conditions.

The K-1's ultra-flexible Cross-Tilt display allows users to get the shot from any position, whether shooting from the ground up, over the crowd, or around the corner. This exceptional level of agility is not found in other full-frame camera offerings.

In summary, the PENTAX K-1 is a versatile and high-performance full-frame camera that combines a 36.4-megapixel AA filter-less CMOS sensor, a 33-point autofocus system, 5-axis SR II shake reduction, GPS/electronic compass/Astro Tracer functionality, a weather-resistant body, a cross-tilt LCD display, and 1080/60i video capabilities, making it an exceptional choice for a wide range of photography enthusiasts and professionals.
