Key Features

Bundle Includes: Pentax K-70 DSLR Camera with 18-135mm Lens (Black), Pentax HD PENTAX-DA 55-300mm f/4.5-6.3 ED PLM WR RE Lens, Pentax Padded Strap for DSLR (Black) and SanDisk 64GB Extreme PRO 170 MB/s UHS-I SDXC Memory Card

Super-High-Resolution Images: The K-70 features a state-of-the-art 24.24 effective megapixel AA Filter-less APS-C sized CMOS sensor for outstanding image quality. By coupling a newly developed accelerator unit with the high-speed PRIME MII imaging engine, the K-70 effectively minimizes noise at all sensitivity levels, and captures richly gradated, finely detailed images even in super-high-sensitivity shooting at a top sensitivity of ISO 102400

Hybrid High-Speed AF Operation: The K-70 employs PENTAX’s first Hybrid AF system during Live View autofocus operation. By positioning a contrast-detection AF sensor with superior focusing accuracy and a phase-matching AF sensor on the image sensor’s surface, this innovative hybrid system optimizes the benefits of both AF systems to assure high-speed, pinpoint AF focusing on the subject

Pentax-Original Shake-Reduction System: The K-70’s in-body shake reduction (SR) mechanism effectively compensates for camera shake up to 4.5EV steps regardless of the lens type mounted. The K-70’s SR unit has a flexible design that tilts the image sensor unit in all directions, providing a host of handy shooting functions, including ASTRO TRACER, which simplifies advanced astronomical photography when used in combination with the optional O-GPS1 GPS Unit

Dustproof, Weather-Resistant Body: The K-70 boasts a fully weather and cold proof design to resist water, fog, snow, sand and dust, for top performance in extreme field conditions. It has been designed for active outdoor shooting through a complete design review of the mode dial and control buttons as well as new grip design that provides a firm hold of the camera body even with a gloved hand

👎 Cons

  • The top sensitivity of ISO 102400, while high, may still exhibit noise in certain extreme low-light conditions.
  • The ASTRO TRACER function requires an optional O-GPS1 GPS Unit, which is not included in this bundle.
