This classic circuit has begun to strain!
Sony has almost the same in the A7 line
Why strain, go read a full review of what has really been updated, you can simply store your expert opinion.
And you, Iksperd of the highest category, read my message below, addressed to Carl Zeiss and please shed light on the truth, so that I can see the eyes of my eyes and I will gain enlightenment about the fact that all the same they really updated.
Apparently, you did not deal with the pentax. For they would not say such things. Because Pentax II’s modifications to the devices have been significantly improved, the errors of the initial versions have been carefully corrected in them, and the functions most in need have been optimized and improved.
Oh, fucking! My eyes will now bleed from pain to read this crap. Detective, yopta ... "Apparently, apparently" I have been waiting for FF from Pentax for the last 8 years and have used Pentax K200D, Pentax K-5, Pentax K-5II, Pentax K-5IIs, Pentax K-3 and recently, thanks to the good , a sympathetic person, had the opportunity to get to know K-1. My question is maturing. Do I need ISO 819200 instead of 204800 for a bolt? Or do I need a boosted 760 battery instead of a 670? Or is the type of UHS-I card (10 mb / s) important to me instead of the old CLASS 10 (10 mb / s)? Improved ... 4th generation cameras, they can't finally do this fucking normal AF. When necessary, I shoot video on Canon and envy Sony's systemists. What's new in the Pentax K-3 II compared to the Pentax K-3? Compass with ZhPS? Super! What's new in the Pentax K-5 II compared to the Pentax K-5? New screen? Well, *** now! (read about AF above) So don't tell me about the revision. Invested in optics and accessories Pentax for 6000 USD. I don’t know how to get rid of it now. I would have known in advance, would have been guided by Sony.
Why was it necessary to swim so much in this river (Pentax K200D, Pentax K-5, Pentax K-5II, Pentax K-5IIs, Pentax K-3) …… Murzik crumpled (6000 cu) and now screams and scratches… .K -1-2 he is not like that, damn it.
I have nothing against K-1. This is a good camera. I just expressed in my first post a clear opinion that Pentax marketers continue to sell their fucking thing. I repeat again, for those who did not understand the meaning of the first message. Starting with K-5 in every Mark2, Pentax doesn't do anything big at all. It simply creates a sublimation of development and progress, but there is no progress. LOZUNG: “The new train is the same as the previous one. The old train will not re-train the new one in terms of train speed ”. But in Sony there is. Sony Alpha A7 mirrorless comes out Good. Yeah, you want to shoot a video, you are more sharpened under the video Sony Alpha A7S, with a small sensor. Then 36 mp comes out. Happiness is not in megapixels, but guys who need 42 megapixels here !!! for deeper portrait retouching or architectural detailing. Everything for people, a huge variety. Each is new, like a breakthrough. And here ... "Let's increase ISO to 819200 - it's so necessary!" And at the expense of "crap" it is better to have optics for 6K USD than not to have it. Don't worry about me. I will sell everything on ibay!
I wish you a successful sailing on the Sony River.
Here I am going to do the following steps.
1) I will leave Pentax optics;
2) I buy a Pentax-Sony adapter; (Lack of AF, but focus on infinity)
3) Buy BU first generation alpha 7 or 7s
4) I use the optics in manual mode with the excellent “Focus Peaking” function. Now video filming will be more needed and still it is done manually. And “Focus Peaking” is just a godsend for such a process.
Profit!
And at what rate did you invest? Here it is - 6000 to 08th shit about anything as you like to talk about - but now it's like a mani!
Good day! I carefully "smoked" all the comments and opinions of the owners, specialists and just practicing the PENTAX system. Since I am an amateur in this matter, and in PENTAX, in particular, I listen attentively to someone else's (especially, already many times suffered) opinion. Comments on the shoals and shortcomings of a particular product are much more important for the user than publicized innovations that have little value for the practical user. I have experience as an amateur film maker - (FED-5; ZENIT, and even in the early 90s the legendary reporter Roleyflex 60 * 60mm. Bought and filmed on it). Although I understood that this is already a “train gone down in history” 😏Now I am faced with a choice - “to do life with whom” 😂
And considering that the hobby for photo / video "pulls" a whole park of optics and other bells and whistles, inevitably you start scratching your turnips so as not to invest in the wrong "train". The prospect of "returning to square one" is somehow not encouraging. Although the PENTAX system itself is impressive. Maybe just aim at the medium format PENTAX? 😋
Therefore, all the opinions are important to me, and the hardened ones, even more so. And marketers themselves will promote the pluses and "pluses" of a particular model. I think your comments on the “rebranding” (“R” Mark -2) are sensible and correct from the user's point of view. And therefore, AP! 😊👏
Many of my amateur acquaintances dissuade, counter-arguing with the insufficient range of optics and impose CANON and NIKON. I like the NIKON fullframe too, especially the recently announced D850. Therefore, the opinion of each practitioner who has suffered is important to me. And opponents of each system and specific model were, are and will be. And everyone will enter the pick to the best of their upbringing and experience, so you just have to “leaf through” it. And "grains" to put in the piggy bank of experience, your own and someone else's. Thank you for your comments, advice and specific instructions on jambs and shortcomings! Good luck to all of us! 😊
Amateur Michael.🖐️
The opinion of the former owner: if reportage is not needed, a lot of money - then we can consider - the system is, however, interesting. Also works well with older manual lenses. In the minuses, I will write down the low prevalence (fig what you buy and sell), expensive native optics in the absence of attention to the system of third-party manufacturers (or even just a ban, as in the case of Tokina and Tamron).
It’s strange, Murzik, that you still didn’t understand the difference between the same K-5 and K-5II. There, not only the screen was changed. And first of all, the entire autofocus system was redesigned. And if you really had these two devices, as you say, then you yourself would have felt this difference. However, you can have a lot of different things, but as a result you can’t learn how to use it correctly.
By and large, the course of your thoughts (regarding Sonya and Kenon) is clear to me. And I even, to some extent, share it. But Pentax did not deserve to be dismissive of himself, even taking into account everything you said above.
1) I didn't feel it. Recycling in words. I believe that this is “a gentle ride on the ears from marketers.” It's like you have 98 l / s in your car, and sales dealers are persuading you to buy a 2nd generation car with 106 l / s. The question is, were the changes dramatic? Is it worth overpaying for +8 l / s? And will you feel the improvement in practice?
So with the camera.
2) I have nothing against the quality of pentax technology. All cameras are like tanks. Durable, knocked down, without backlash, creaks, gaps, dust and water tight. With K-5II in the 15th year at Christmas at -15 I photographed a holiday on the street for almost 6 hours, great!
I'm bothered by Rico’s marketing policies. Always a long time! It's always late! Always one step behind! Naebalov’s policy.
In all second brands of all K-5, K-3 and K-1 models, these improvements are practically not needed by anyone! They do not affect anything! Pentax just wants to make money out of the blue, extend sales and pull rubber. Here, the K-1 II uses a battery of 760 frames instead of 670. What the hell is the difference to me. I myself just buy another 2dop. batteries and it will still be better. Then it implements a new UHS memory format with a speed of 10 mb / s., The same as class 10 (old). What's the difference to you?
Mark-2 is just for those who were hesitant to buy Mark-1.
Just the 2nd wave of lure, they say: “Look, you will now be even cooler than those who hastened to buy Mark-1. You will be cool posons, because you just have 2 "
What should push me, as a user of the first K-1, to buy a Mark 2? Only pride and greed, vanity. So as not to seem like a black sheep, like epl users. The majors quickly bought an iPhone 5 for $ 800, then after half a year they dropped it for $ 450 - 500 and took an iPhone 5-S, because they would beat you up in the club, that you are with "old" because the new "powerful" percent will be even better help to sit in FB and take selfies)
So it is with the camera. I hope I lucidly explained with an example from epl?) The best critic Pentax is not a competitor from Kenon, but a long-term user of Pentax itself))) I wonder when Pentax will give birth to FF system?
Changes could not be seen only by those for whom the camera is a toy, and not a working tool. I had a Pentax k5, now I work with a Pentax k5ii. These are two completely different devices !!! Unlike the k5, the autofocus has never failed, I rarely correct the white balance, the video takes longer (on the k5, a warning about the matrix overheating appeared after a few minutes). The noise is much less. There is a Canon 60D at work, that's rubbish! Autofocus as you are lucky, the white balance is not stable even on frames in the same series, tin from the great CANON! All critical shooting only on k5ii. If the maximum iso would have been like k1ii, the price would not have been there. It is often necessary to photograph fast-moving objects in large rooms without the ability to use flash.
“Unlike k5, autofocus has never failed ...” - wow! Immediately evident, the master with prof. camera!
Not like us, with our bricks.
As for the K-5 and K-5 II, in the second modification the autofocus was really well developed. And the second model will be significantly better than the first. As for the K-3, everything is exactly the opposite. What will be the result with K-1, let's see. But the good news is that the second modification of the pentax is usually, as a rule, no worse than the first. There were no failed second modifications.
Yes, and if you leave all these disputes about the nuances and look at everything globally, it is impossible not to state that all Pentax devices are excellent cameras for their price. And for the most part, they devote quality and ergonomics to their competitors from other systems. Glasses, yes, a little expensive. But then again, they give out at the same time such a picture that the Nikons and Kenons from the same price range never dreamed of! Only Fuji, Lake, and Sonya with Zeiss glasses can compete with Pentax cameras.
Okay. I admit the fact that AF in the K-5 II is better. Nevertheless, all the cuts could be done the first time. And instead of 3 cameras with dips, it was possible to release 6 cameras following the evolution of the development of requests for photographic equipment and technical fetish of users. Why the fuck can't be done right the first time. Seven times measure cut once! And at the moment there was already used a mirrorless camera from Pentax and a mirrorless camera from Pentax Mark-2 42 MP with 4K shooting. But no, traditionally the first pancake is lumpy + finished, again, the first pancake is lumpy + finished. They do it on purpose! NEXT TIME you can not take a new product right away, but just wait 12 months. And TAKE MARK-2, knowing in advance that the mark-1 is just a pancake lumpy. That's what I mean.
And again, you are right in all your comments on ,, R ”MARK-2. And opponents who have already bought the MARK-2, most likely, are still under the impression of owning a new "carcass". Well, it happens. We are all people, consumers, and to some extent “children”, the only difference being that “toys” have become more expensive. Hence the joy of the purchase, which is new, and the disappointment that the “door of the car” does not open again. 😊 To my dear opponents of Murzik, I wish good luck in using and real, specific comments, and not enthusiasm about just a “new reincarnation” MARK- 2.👍
And the fullframe system on PENTAX is, of course, a tempting expectation, but manufacturers and engineers from PENTAX do not even stutter about it. Or do we just don’t know something? 🤔😊
WHAT DO YOU WANT TO RELEASE FROM?
Sorry. What Pentax lenses do you want to get rid of ??? maybe i will buy ???
And why would you be guided by dormouse, if not pentax? Why not Canon / Nikon? I often began to think about changing the system, but I don’t understand why they love sleepyheads ... but it is the color rendition that is important to me, which seems to be no better than that of a sleepyhead.
As an experienced practitioner of PENTAX K-1 MARK-2, what would you recommend as the first three lenses for him? Preferences - landscape, portrait, leisurely captivating shooting.
Murzik. I read all the comments. The conclusion is one, for you the camera is just a toy. K-1, albeit late, but with noticeable differences at the time of release from competitors. Mark 2 - what can I tell you. Now, if you change your old mother with a 4 MHz stump percentage and ddr980 2 RAM for a new core ay512 ddr5 3 GB stump, will it make a difference for you or not?
Yes, there is a small change from the chips that are not particularly needed. Correctly said - the move of marketers about the increased ISO.
But the camera is designed for serious photography, not for everyday photography - everything.
And the video is just a tribute to fashion. Rico's video will not develop in the apparatus. But the quality of image processing in software is many times higher than that of others.
The colors are almost perfect for a digital matrix. Others don't, except for FujiFilm.
Pentax, now Rico, is working on quality, primarily images and usability for the thinking photographers. For lovers of everyday shooting of everything in a row, there are other cheap cameras.
Sonya - knowing her well, worked with her a lot, limps in many ways, a lot of glitches.
For prices - compare the prices of others and pentax. So who is the “loot”?
Carl Zeiss - Sony and Leica - do not fit in the picture. The lake is like that - it sank into the pit. Medium quality. Excellent was only on two cameras Monochrome and M6.
And about the differences between the 1st and 2nd, you can read from a professional photographer Dmitry Eftifeev. He tried to give a high-quality, unbiased review - http://evtifeev.com/58562-obzor-i-test-zerkalnoy-polnokadrovoy-fotokameryi-pentax-k-1-mark-ii.html#preimuschestva-sistemy-pentax
Xs what kind of glitches you saw on Sonya. I've been sitting on them for 12 years. There were a lot of complaints about Sonya, but I didn't notice any glitches. On the pentax, yes, weird things happened.
How is the D810 only without normal AF?
And without a park of glasses for Nikon bayonet ...
Although free STAB (!) And GPS is good)
why do you need GPS? )))
And for work ..)
It's just that Nikon and Canon on ff cameras need to pay dearly for this penny in our time, but here it is free.
“Without AA filter, as well as with the function of simulation of this filter ...” - noise reduction in our opinion?))
Pixel Shift is certainly cool. It’s a pity you don’t really shoot, only the landscape.
I somehow tried to understand why Nikon and Kenon do not do the built-in stub. As always, I found only sofa analytes. They write that the built-in stub significantly complicates the AF operation, worsens accuracy and speed, etc. I don’t know, maybe it is.
A stub built into the camera will prevent you from earning money for a stub in each lens.
I also remember reading at the same analytes that stabilizing an image is easier and more effective in the lens before it finally focuses on the matrix. Theoretically, it seems to be true. The plane of the matrix does not move with respect to the central axis.
Again, these are just speculations. How it really is, who knows.
My father worked as an engineer at the Lytkarinsky Optical Glass Plant, saying that in general there is one alchemy))
Once I read in an advertisement, like in Sonya, the diagram was explained, what gives a stub in the lens, if there is a stub on the matrix. Type one compensates for the displacement in the straight plane (displacement in the matrix plane to the left, right, up and down), and the other levels out in the plane of the sphere (nod / turn by the camera) - the hands are still shaking not orthogonally or coplanar.
In fact, for all the shifts back and forth relative to the matrix, autofocus is responsible.))
But what, you mean, you can’t call autofocus a stab? They don’t lie, but simply describe the work of the super-stub in 8 dimensions in a different way.
Only kurostab!
Well, find the source, please! 😋 So that this does not look like an unfounded statement on the fence. Then we will rejoice all together.😊
Well, the photographer's hands shouldn't tremble in any way. Unless, of course, this is a morning “bodun” or Parkinsonian tremor. ”I used to shoot on film, I started with just“ Change ”, without any numbers and letter indices of modifications. And I don’t remember that there was any grease, except for the cases when someone could push on purpose. The exposure speed, and the fastest on that “Change” was 1/250, was always enough.
It is reasonable, but only for those manufacturers who have a full production cycle (carcasses and optics park). But independent optical manufacturers are in no hurry to include stubs in all their lenses.
And what is revolutionary? Well, except mark 2, of course.
It’s good that at least one manufacturer doesn’t beat the price like a fist.
Pentax simply puts adequate prices on its products. And many other well-known brands simply lost their shores. And they beat the amount several times overstated for their crafts.
What a horror
The person above spoke about delays in release, lagging behind in stuffing, questions about autofocus and “innovativeness” of functions. I think Pentax marketers can very clearly see the upper price limit, after which new products from their company will not be bought at all. Reminds the strategy of the Chinese, in fact, re-opening n-year-old things under their own brand, under a license of copyright holders, of decent quality and an acceptable price for third-country buyers, for whom originals are just a luxury (for example, cars, moto, phones, action cameras, etc. )
Pentax has a lot of innovative developments in the manufacture of photo equipment so that this manufacturer is not compared with the Chinese.
As for the speed of release of new products, then yes, I agree with you. Pentax is in no hurry. But then when it releases, it really is a thing that people later enjoy to use!
Speaking of birds: Pentax first introduced an intracameral stub. Next, Pentax was first made Pixel Shift Resolution (combining 4 frames into a single unit with a shift of one pixel). The digital pentax (K-10) has a multiple exposure. Others did not have before (except for film type Shift, Lover). And the most interesting Pentax was the first to start producing dust and moisture protected cameras and lenses for them.
Well, we, as consumers, “vote” with a wallet for a specific model and brand / system. But mistakes in choosing a system sometimes cost us dearly.
Normal prices at all. You do not forget that the dollar used to cost 30 rubles, and now 65. If it weren’t for the rate, then everything would be 2 times cheaper.
An interesting camera, improvements are akin to the Nikon’s 800, it’s become the 810th, but the video mode is absolutely nothing, if only a 100 Mb / s stream were made, it’s completely embarrassing.
Citizens, the most pleasant thing in 2ki's release is the cheapening of the first revision :)
All the same, at the flea market K-1 stands like new. This is the big problem with Pentax, Pentax is taken only by those who know why he needs Pentax.
Pentax is taken by those who want a drawing similar to Leykovsky, and at the same time in a certain way, is limited in means.
The only drawback of Pentax carcasses and glass, in comparison with the competitors' counterparts, is their lesser suitability for quick reportage shooting. In terms of most of the other parameters, Pentax is superior to its competitors, and in the picture from its beautiful lenses it is better than all of them. Only the picture given by lenses from Carl Zeiss and a couple of other vendors yields.
Sorry. I may not be in the subject. Discuss photographic equipment. you are the last snobs. but they forgot about the photograph itself. The male complex. who has more. And the children are modest. And you are paranoid.
I can’t wait for the Pentax to make a normal epaulet, and remove the extra wheels 2 is enough.
I wonder how it differs from the first version
Compared with the first version, the autofocus system has been improved. Strengthened weak components and parts that are subjected to the most intense load and wear during operation.
It seems to me that the device is solid, good, for someone it is generally super (from a practical point of view and for me), but in my humble opinion, in terms of design, it is a freak, an ugly duckling.
Marry some, but just sleep with others)
Look at the Sigma SD Quattro or Sigma SD Quattro H in Google pictures :)
Did you even hold it in your hands before scolding ?!
K-1 is an excellent device! Very comfortable in hand and in functionality a cut above, from competitors' analogues.
He is handsome in design. It is comfortable in the hand. In terms of functionality - great! And those who scolded him, either did not hold him in their hands, or held and realized that he was much better than those full-frame SLRs from other manufacturers that they had the misfortune to buy before themselves.
The appearance is not for everybody, Sergey. It seems to me that you are wrong. PENTAX K-1 (MARK-2) looks very worthy, a real "tank" with a solid structure. An acquaintance of mine, though an amateur photographer, took the second modification for himself and gave it a shot. Everything was done very solidly and firmly. We can say that he immediately fell in love with the constructive. True, the remarks of the respected Murzik are also quite objective in terms of the filling.

The Pentax K-1 mark II is marking time. The Pentax 7D was released 645 years ago with a non-standard 30x40 mm matrix instead of the standard 40x60,60x60 or 60x90 mm, at a high price of 272 thousand rubles. She did not find demand. 7 years ago they could keep the amount of 44 Мg-pic with electronics from Pentax 645D b and bring the matrix format to 24x36 mm. Now we see that they cut the old CMOS matrix Pentax 645D with scissors and lost the amount in direct proportion pic in terms of area. The situation is worse with VIDEO, with 7360 × 4912 pic, but never reached 4K format. In previous Full-HD models, the VUDEO quality was disgusting. Obviously, the task is to gradually increase the price and improve the quality by using replacement of models, but the problem is that they have long lagged behind the technology offered on the world market. Look at the sales statistics - “low.” Anyone who wants to cash in on the sale of technically stale products does not get anything. A camera with such parameters makes no sense to buy, I will wait with the Pentax K-20 in my hands, I waited 13 years and I will wait until the quality improves. Here are the calculations for the resolution and areas of CMOS matrices: for 24x15.4 mm = 369.6 mm.kv.-14.6 Mg-pic; in terms of 24x36mm = 864 mm34.13 -1 Mg-pic. Pentax K-36,4 II in reality offers 34 Mg-pic, i.e. no progress is observed in resolution, that 36, chio2,331. The positive aspects include an increase in the area of 47 times. For lenses 54-54 lines / mm as measured by the MIR of the State Optical Institute, GOST USSR, it is necessary, according to calculations: 24 Mg-pic for the format 36x4 mm. To obtain a high-quality static object, I use the matrix method of shooting 6x14,6 frames at 350 Mg-pic = 24 Mg-pic after assembling a SOFT panorama. In practice, I shoot 6 frames horizontally and 2,1 layers vertically, counting how many it will turn out: 13 G / byte. We get that no camera in essence will satisfy us, but we live well now and 2018 years ago we lived well - on Soviet optics, on Computer image processing programs. The tripod head for panoramic shooting is developed and in operation, the results are good. Who is interested I will send a video report.svetlov.vm@yandex.ru St. Petersburg XNUMX. Do not waste your money, there are workarounds to get quality.
I use Pentax K-30, not a bad technique ... although, despite the plugs, the dust still hawked) there is also an unpleasant glitch that is not related to the camera mileage, it appears, apparently after a certain time, I repeat the glitch is not related to the camera mileage, meaning is such that the diaphragm on all lenses does not open, you look in the viewfinder everything is fine, everything is exposed ... and the picture turns out to be impossible to dark ... fought with this glitch, turned over a bunch of forums, it turned out this glitch at the pentax for many ... it is advised to disassemble, undermine the electromagnet-clean ... I wanted to put an end to the pentax ... and look in the direction of fuji or dormouse ...
but then I came across a lens from the 80s ... it must be said a fairy tale ... the impression that it was made just now, the quality is so high, for some reason there is no such thing now, but it may be, but the price tag ... having removed it, I know, I decided not to give it up pentax
in general, pentax, so to speak, is in a certain sense a thing in itself ... but why did I choose it? I started with a Samsung soap dish (the lens stopped working), then I bought a Sony (much higher class, there is even a j-pies), I took pictures with pleasure, but soon I felt that even a good soap dish is still a soap dish) ... I chose between Nikon and Kenon ( well, this entry-level), and then suddenly I saw a pentax in the window and, moreover, it was much cheaper, I held it and realized that it was made much more seriously, much ...
PS I did not disassemble the camera, did not clean the magnets, just put finger batteries and it all worked))
I use the same glitch for 30 years, I also put finger batteries for 6 years. Pentax is a camera with which you can do anything, not long ago it crashed with 43 lim very much on the floor, I thought everything, picked it up and started to remove not scratches. I thought about switching to another system, I’m looking after Sonya, but after that incident I wondered if I should take the K1 mark 2. I shoot both sports and landscapes, if autofocus is better than 30, then you can probably take it in my autofocus.
