Model Overview

The Pentax K-5 II Digital SLR Camera Body is the successor to the Pentax K-5 and builds upon many of the advanced features the K-5 was popular for, such as its high-quality image reproduction and compact, weather-sealed magnesium-alloy build. The Pentax K-5 II houses a newly developed, highly sensitive SAFOX AF module which ensures excellent focus tracking, better performance in low light conditions and improved AF accuracy, thanks to its ability to AF in a broader EV range (-3 to +18 EV). With its large 16MP CMOS sensor coupled with Pentax's PRIME II imaging engine, the K5 II delivers super-high resolution, rich-gradation digital images free of noise over a wide sensitivity range from ISO 100-12,800 (expandable from 80 to 51,200). The K5 II comes equipped with a 3.0” LCD (921k-dots) and a bright, clear optical viewfinder with a 100% field of view. Other features include high-speed continuous shooting of up to 7fps and full HD movie recording.
