Engineered to incorporate all the performance requirements of high-resolution full-frame 35mm digital photography, the PENTAX K-1's new 36.4MP full-frame CMOS sensor is more than just another full-frame sensor. Featuring a combination of the new large pixel, full-frame sensor with high noise resistance and the new PRIME IV processor, the K-1 has achieved a staggering sensitivity range of up to ISO 204,800, the highest in its class.

The K-1's innovative 5-axis SR II system covers the shake of yaw, pitch, roll, vertical, and horizontal motion of the camera, providing an improved shake reduction performance of up to 5 shutter steps of compensation effect. Since the SR is built into the K-1 body, it operates with every K-mount lens, ensuring seamless integration.

Combining the K-1's SR mechanism and the GPS feature, the Astro Tracer function allows users to easily track and photograph astronomical objects, making the K-1 an excellent choice for astrophotography enthusiasts.

The K-1's sensor also generates the same level of moiré-reduction effect as an optical AA (anti-aliasing) filter, without the softening effect. This unique feature allows users to adjust the level of the moiré-reduction effect from OFF, Type1, and Type2, and even provides bracketing capabilities for these settings.

For enhanced usability in dark situations, the K-1 features new operation assist lighting placed in strategic locations on the camera body, ensuring quick and easy operation.

Carefully sealed in 87 different places, the K-1 is built for durable usage under harsh weather conditions, allowing users to capture the shot anywhere, from any position, using the extremely nimble and flexible Cross-Tilt display.

The K-1's APS-C crop mode ensures backward compatibility with PENTAX APS-C lenses, while the 1080/60i video mode with focus peaking in video mode will assist with manual focusing. Additionally, the camera's LED illuminated body points provide valuable visual feedback in low-light conditions.

Weighing in at 32.6 ounces, the PENTAX K-1 is a versatile and robust full-frame camera that delivers exceptional performance and features, making it a compelling choice for professional and enthusiast photographers alike.
