Pentax KP DSLR Camera (Body Only, Black)
Key Features
  • 24.3MP APS-C AA-Filterless CMOS Sensor
  • PRIME IV Engine with Accelerator Unit
  • Smart Function Exchangeable Grip
  • Full HD 1080p30 Video; 4K Interval Movie
Taking the stage as a modular and compact camera option in the Pentax lineup is the black KP DSLR with a unique smart function exchangeable grip that can be swapped as needed by the photographer. Beyond this, the KP was designed for outstanding low-light performance due to a newly developed 24.3MP APS-C CMOS sensor that eliminates its anti-aliasing filter and the PRIME IV Engine with an accelerator unit for processing. This enables it to reach sensitivities up to ISO 819200 with minimal noise as well as capture maximum sharpness at all times. A 5-axis in-body Shake Reduction II module further assists image quality by compensating for up to 5 stops of shutter speed during longer exposures as well as activating the Pixel Shift Resolution mode.

question

Sigma lens
Asked by: N. Z.
I use 2 Sigma zoom lenses in Pentax mount with this body. I have a 10-20 zoom and an 18-300 zoom. The build quality is good, durability good, but not as robust as my Pentax lenses and the sharpness is very good, not quite excellent across the entire zoom and focus range. The 18-300 does not hold focus across the zoom range so if you are in manual focus you cannot zoom in to check focus and then move to another focal length. enlarge live view for that purpose. The 18-300 does not seem to auto focus in video mode. Those are the only negatives I have for the 18-300. It is an EXCELLENT value for the price. I traveled hard with these two lenses through India and they performed very well.
