The K10D represents a change of direction for Pentax. It's the first Pentax D-SLR that breaks away from the beginner market and tries to cater for the more advanced enthusiasts. The K10D is the best Pentax D-SLR to date and offers plenty to the enthu...
Enthusiast users can breath a sigh of relief that Pentax has finally come up with a camera that suits their needs. The K10D is still not perfect but it´s a damn sight better than the last four Pentax releases. While those cameras were mostly priced a...

The white balance fine tuning in this camera is a thing of beauty. If you take a photo, say under incandescent light, and you don’t like the look of it, simply go into white balance fine tuning immediately and you will see the last photo you have ju...
The mirror/shutter slap is not as sweet as it might be.
The Pentax K10D is a brilliant camera. At the price it is a world-beater. It will be interesting to see how it goes in the market place where, paradoxically, its low price may count against it. Can a $1900 camera/lens combination compete with a similar...

Not only is the K10D the best D-SLR that Pentax has ever built (and by quite a margin over the still-excellent K100D), it's the best D-SLR in its class… and is even capable of challenging the EOS 30D and the D200. If Canon and Nikon *body only have been i...
