Title: Pentax K10D(9/3/07)Summary: Over the past few years Pentax has wheeled out a succession of largely identical 6MP SLRs which were neat but nothing special. Can the K10D break the mould?...

Title: Pentax K10D(3/12/07)Summary: My first impressions of the K10D were very positive, a well designed and robust body with a clearly extensive range of manual functions and a fairly logical control layout. The positive experience continued in use with the large, bright Pentaprism viewfinder, fast auto focus and short lag times. Menus and playback are equally as snappy... Read the full review Pros: ; Good built-in flash metering; Mirror lock-up implemented as part of the self-timer; Large, bright and high resolution LCD monitor; Robust body with dust and weather seals, high build quality; User definable Auto ISO (set minimum and maximum ISO); Good battery life from high capacity Lithium-Ion rechargeable; USB 2.0 Hi-Speed interface Cons: ; Color space selection buried in custom menu; Would have been nice to have hard buttons for White Balance and ISO sensitivity; Turning up sharpness setting doesn't deliver crisper edges; Slightly inconsistent continuous shooting rate (although always around 3.1 fps); About a third of a stop less highlight dynamic range than the Country:

Title: Pentax K10D ReviewSummary: There is not much to say about the Pentax K10D's body. It is compact, lies well in your hand and of excellent quality. It can cope with dust and light rain, which is nice if you photograph outside a lot. All in all, I was really charmed by the Pentax K10D. The clever discoveries made it a really pleasant camera to work with and thanks to... Read the full review Country:

Title: Pentax K10D reviewSummary: : A bargain amateur dSLR with great features, customisation and photo quality... Read the full review Verdict: A great feature set for the price, pro-level customisation and excellent photo quality make the Pentax K10D a bargain amateur dSLR. Only unremarkable performance holds it back from joining the pack leaders Pros: ; Excellent photo quality; well-designed and solidly built body; premium features for its price class; good kit lens Cons: ; Occasional autofocus hunting; Shake Reduction only buys you a little over one stop Country:

Title: Pentax K10DSummary: The Pentax K10D is quite a surprise. It might look like a 10-megapixel version of Pentax's existing SLRs, but it's not. It has a different, much larger body that feels like it's been hewn from a solid block of granite, and its performance matches anything its rivals can do. Read the full review Country:
