QUOTE(flamephotography @ Jan 8 2015, 11:20 AM) No doubt that the NX1 is the best APS-C size camera now in terms of image quality and video. But I doubt the Stills Focusing System would not be any better than the K-3 or the K-5II/s in low light condition without the use of the AF Assist light. But not hundred percent sure. And I still don't buy in with EVF. Maybe I am old fashion. Still prefer the optical ones. I some how have the mentality that looking at the television to close can spoil our eyes. The K-3's focusing system is somehow quite astonishing in almost any condition. I was quite surprised, amazed and at same time disappointed that It even beats the Nikon D610's focusing in normal restaurant lighting conditions without the use of the AF Assist light for the K-3 and with AF Assist light from the Nissin Di600 flash which is rubbish. The only doubt is the 3D tracking ability which I could not be bother because I hardly use it. For me, I would be jumping back to the Pentax 24MP AA Filterless FF if they ever release it if the focusing system specs is as good as the K-3 with the same button layout and with 4K video support and cost the same or slightly higher than the D750. Cheers fellow Pentaxians.....  k3 AF is that good?  *thinking to upgrade but not sure worth or not. |

Nikon D600, D610, and Sony A7, lagi worth it at below 3k..... Muahahahaaaa...... This post has been edited by flamephotography: Jan 8 2015, 05:21 PM |

QUOTE(craxors @ Jan 12 2015, 01:54 PM) thats quite a good price. but i think if you want to upgrade, might want to wait for whatever announcement pentax might have this year and get that one or get the k3 with a cheaper price. k3 for 600usd is not impossible later. |

Can you guys recommend which series to buy with the budget < RM 2500. Thank you There is really not much choice for Pentax brand camera. But rest assure that all current Pentax DSLR is a brilliant camera in terms of image quality and high ISO noise performance wise. Even the K-30 and the K-5 is still a very capable camera for its image quality. For your budget, you can consider a new K-50 with a used Tamron 17-50 f2.8 or a 28-70 f2.8 but compromised the WR. Or even a used K-5 or K-30 with the Tamron 17-50 f2.8 or a 28-70 f2.8. And Pentax2u have the K-50 bundle that is also within your budget. Oh, and all Pentax DSLR comes with the screw drive which makes purchasing Tamron lens cheaper. Like the brilliant 70-200 f2.8 for less than 3k new. Just my 2 cents...... Cheers and happy shopping...... |
