- In-body shake reduction stabilizes every mounted lens, including vintage manual-focus glass.
- Pixel Shift Resolution with motion correction extracts greater detail and color accuracy from the 24.2 MP sensor.
- Vari-angle LCD with red-light night-vision mode is purpose-built for astrophotography and low-angle shooting.
- Native ISO range extends to 204800 for handheld shooting in extremely low light.
👎 Cons
- Body-only purchase requires a separate lens investment before the camera is usable.
- SAFOX X autofocus system uses 11 points, which is limited compared to newer cameras with dozens or hundreds of AF points.

- The K-mount lens ecosystem is smaller than competing Canon EF or Nikon F systems.
