Pentax K20D

February 5th, 2008

The Pentax K20D is Pentax’s latest midpriced lens-interchangeable digital SLR based on the successful K10D body with a 14.6 megapixel 23.4 mm x 15.6 mm CMOS sensor, upgraded from the 10.2 megapixel sensor in the K10D, that was newly developed to take advantage of Pentax interchangeable lenses by detecting diagonal light better. It also has improved noise reduction, a dustproof and weather resistant body with several dust reducing features like Dust Alert, 2.7-inch wide-view LCD monitor with the Live View function for high and low angle shooting, SAFOX VIII autofocus system featuring 11 sensor points.

Other features:
Shake Reduction compatible with any PENTAX lens ever produced, including new SDM lenses, minimizes the effect of camera shake
PRIME image processing engine maximizes image properties and allows custom adjustment of image parameters
Custom Image modes, with six preset options, offer superior control of how the PRIME processor develops images
Enhanced Dynamic Range mode gives 200% more dynamic range
Advanced 16-segment metering and 11-point AF, with 9 cross sensors, ensure perfectly exposed and focused images
Unique exposure modes, such as hyper-program, Sv and TAv, offer shooting versatility

And best of all you’ll be able to use all of your old Pentax compatible lenses.
