The PENTAX KF is a dependable performer, even in demanding settings such as rain, fog, or snow, or at locations prone to dust and freezing temperatures. Featuring a compact, easy-to-carry body with dustproof, weather-resistant construction and outstanding cold-proof performance at temperatures down to -14°F, the PENTAX KF assures high-resolution imaging with a state-of-the-art CMOS image sensor with approximately 24.24 effective megapixels and high-speed 14-bit image data readout.

Coupled with an AA-filter-free optical design, this image sensor delivers super-high-resolution images. By pairing a high-performance accelerator unit with the high-speed PRIME MII imaging engine, the PENTAX KF effectively minimizes noise at all sensitivity levels and captures rich-gradation, fine-detailed images even in super-high-sensitivity shooting at a top sensitivity of ISO 102400.

Within its compact body, the PENTAX KF incorporates a glass prism viewfinder featuring the same optics and coatings as those used in higher-level models. With its approximately 100% field of view and 0.95-times magnification, the viewfinder provides a large, clear view of the subject for quick, easy confirmation of focusing and framing.

The PENTAX KF provides a host of wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) functions to support operations using smartphones and tablet computers. By installing the dedicated Image Sync application on a mobile device, the user can remotely check the Live View image, capture still images, and adjust such camera settings as aperture, shutter speed and ISO sensitivity to the desired level through the mobile device.

Included with the Pentax KF is the PENTAX DA L 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 AL WR Lens, perfect for rugged outdoor photography. The LCD monitor also features a night vision red light function that reduces strain on your eyes when you shoot in dark places, and allows you to easily select brightness levels according to your location.

The bundle includes the Pentax KF DSLR Camera Kit (Black) with PENTAX DA L 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 AL WR Lens, Ricoh Pentax O-GPS2 GPS Unit, Nostrand Avenue Camera System Gadget Bag with Accessory and Cleaning Kit, Software Bundle of 4 Softwares OEM Photo, Video, and Art Software Suite, and a 64GB Extreme Pro SDXC UHS-I Memory Card.

The O-GPS2 mounts on the hot shoe of the camera and records the latitude, longitude, altitude, universal time coordinated (UTC), and direction of the shooting location onto captured images. This function couples the unit with the camera's shake reduction system, so your Astrotracer feature is enabled.
