Product Specs

Basic Information

Product Features

The PENTAX K-3 Mark III is a kit that combines the PENTAX K-3 Mark III, which has functions and performance that make even the process of photography enjoyable, and the HD PENTAX-DA 20-40mmF2-8-4ED Limited DC WR, which has been well-received for its meticulous finish, challenging areas such as "lens taste" in depiction that cannot be measured with numerical values. This kit combines the PENTAX K-3 Mark III with the HD PENTAX-DA 20-40mmF2.8-4ED Limited DC WR, which has been well-received for its meticulous finish. The latest firmware is pre-installed with the new SATOBI custom image.

- Optical viewfinder with approximately 100% field of view and 1.05x magnification

The camera is equipped with an optical viewfinder with a field of view of approximately 100% and a magnification of approximately 1.05x [FA F1.4/50mm/∞]. The newly developed high-refractive-index glass pentaprism provides a large field of view comparable to that of a full-size camera while ensuring eye relief, and the distortion-corrected lens and optimized coating provide a clear and natural viewfinder image with no distortion and a brightness of The brightness is approximately 10% brighter than that of the PENTAX K-3 II.

The focusing screen is made of Natural Bright Matte III, which is renowned for its ease of focusing during manual focusing, and provides a high quality view with excellent reproducibility of bokeh effect. In addition, the transparent viewfinder display makes it possible to display a variety of shooting information on the screen.

- High-resolution images with approximately 25.73 effective megapixels and ultra-high sensitivity performance with a maximum ISO sensitivity of 1.6 million

In pursuit of even higher image quality, the K-5 employs a new back-illuminated CMOS image sensor with low-pass filter-less specifications that produces high-resolution images of approximately 25.73 effective megapixels, equivalent to APS-C size. In addition, the newly developed high-performance image processing engine "PRIME V" and "Accelerator Unit II" have been incorporated, and the basic device has been completely redesigned to maintain high resolution throughout the entire range from low sensitivity to ultra-high sensitivity. The new camera has achieved high image quality by thoroughly reducing noise while maintaining high resolution throughout the entire sensitivity range from low sensitivity to ultra-high sensitivity. In addition, by dramatically improving the high-sensitivity noise reduction processing performance, the maximum ISO sensitivity of 1.6 million has been achieved, greatly expanding the shooting range.

- SR II" 5-axis, 5.5-step high-performance image stabilization mechanism

The SR II (Shake Reduction II) mechanism built into the camera body effectively corrects camera shake even in shooting conditions that are prone to camera shake, such as telephoto shooting, flash-off shooting, and landscapes at dusk. In addition to general angular shake (two axes, horizontal and vertical), the camera also corrects for shift shake (two axes, horizontal and vertical) and rotational shake, which tend to occur during macro shooting. The correction effect is our highest at 5.5 stops (based on CIPA standards; lens used: HD PENTAX-DA 16-85mmF3.5-5.6ED DC WR, f=85mm), which significantly expands the limits of hand-held photography. It is also equipped with a new "stream mode" for shooting slow-moving subjects.

- SAFOX 13" 101-point AF system

The newly developed phase detection AF system "SAFOX 13" enables high-precision AF, with 25 cross sensors in the center of the 101 AF points and a low-light limit of -4 EV for AF. In addition, the new RGBIr metering sensor, whose pixel count has been increased to approximately 307,000, and the latest motion prediction algorithms improve AF tracking performance and the ability to respond to changes in subject speed and irregular motion. The new distance-measuring lever allows the user to specify the distance-measuring point more intuitively (up to 41 points).

- PENTAX Real-Time Scene Analysis System" based on artificial intelligence technology

The combination of the new high-resolution RGBIr metering sensor and the latest PRIMEV image processing engine enables the PENTAX Real-time Scene Analysis System to detect subjects such as a person's face and eyes using image recognition technology and to analyze their movements in real time for optimal exposure control and autofocusing. This enables optimal exposure control and subject capture during autofocusing.

- High-resolution LCD monitor for intuitive touch operation

- High-speed continuous shooting up to approx. 12 frames/sec. in AF.S mode and approx. 11 frames/sec. in AF.C mode

- Capable of recording 3840 x 2160: 30p/24p 4K movies and 1920 x 1080: 60p/30p/24p full HD movies using H.264 as recording format

- Dual Bluetooth & wireless LAN communication

- Supports charging the camera body using USB Type-C port

- Dual SD card slots (slot 1 is UHS-II compatible)
