The K-01 Digital Camera With 18-55mm & 50-200mm Lenses (Black) from Pentax joins the march of the mirrorless cameras with this advanced 16MP camera with a large APS-C-sized CMOS sensor. In a very compact body with a high-resolution (920K dots) 3" LCD, Pentax has provided a wide range of advanced features. The included 18-55mm and 50-200mm lenses cover nearly any photo opportunity you could encounter, providing everything from wide-angle to ultra telephoto.
Full control is possible using the PASM modes, with a full automatic function available. The ISO range of 100 to 25,600 and a sensor-shift image stabilization system virtually eliminate blurry, shaky pictures forever. Full HD 1080p video at 30 fps is at your fingertips. The large APS-C sensor gives you superb resolution using JPG or RAW files, and creative filters, auto modes, and finishing options cater to your imaginative impulses. Shutter speeds from 30 seconds up to 1/4000 gives you all the exposure options you need, and you can shoot action at up to 6 fps-you'll never need to miss a photo opportunity waiting for your camera to catch up with you.
A built-in pop-up flash and a hotshoe expand your lighting possibilities. Advanced functions are built-in: a focus peaking mode that provides fast and accurate manual focusing for critical focus applications, and in-camera HDR that combines multiple bracketed user-specified exposures into a single, perfectly blended still image. The K-01 is compatible with Pentax K-mount lenses.

Comments about Pentax K-01 Digital Camera With 18-55mm & 50-200mm Lenses (Black):
I use this camera all the time for many different reasons. I use it for my brother playing sports, my sister singing and acting, outdoor scenes, and still life pictures all around me.
There are many features that are great about this camera. The lenses are not too tricky to figure out and they come on and off with a click of a button. The camera also adjusts itself to make every image clear. It focus's within a few seconds and makes every moment picture perfect.
Over all, this camera is amazing and so worth it! Thee only issue I have had is the time in the focusing. It goes pretty quick, but if you need an action shot on the spot, it may not be quick enough. This camera is amazing and makes everything more interesting to see.
