K5IIs -positive impressions from Photokina


Around the same as when K5 was launched. Thanks for the info. :)
 

We will have to wait for comparative samples to be sure.
Remember that 100% crop on 12mp is not the same size as 100% on 16mp.

I'm optimistic for sure :)

I'm sure your optimism is well founded. The K5IIs sure have difference :D

SINGAPORE - Pentax Ricoh revealed its flagship K-5 IIs full-frame DSLR together with the dimunitive mirrorless camera Q10 on Thursday.

The K-5 IIs is an update of the original K-5 and maintains the ergonomics of its predecessor with the addition of a new SAFOX AF Sensor, which boasts the same 16.3-megapixel resolution of the K-5 but is said to perform better in low light conditions.

The Q10 is an update over the last year's Q. Sporting almost identical construction and features to the Q, the Q10 adds a few tweaks to its design so it is easier to grip. Prices and availability to be announced.

Full Frame 24mmx16mm sensor coverage :D :D


Really shoddy journalism.
No mention of AA filterless but camera becomes FF. WTH!

Haha, I think the writer is Canikon, just trying to rub sarcasticism into the ever eluding FF Pentax release.
