Pentax K-01 Mirrorless ILC

The Pentax K-01 announced on February 2, 2012 is an impressive blend of tradition and modernity that is sure to delight existing Pentax users, but it's moot whether it will draw more camera enthusiasts to the Pentax fold.

Uppers

The most outstanding feature of the camera is its ability to use out-of-the-box Pentax K-mount lenses that are used on existing Pentax DSLR cameras. The K-01 also supports dedicated XS lenses. (See photo above.)

The kit lens that will ship with the K-10 is an XS lens: DA XS 40mm F2.8. It is claimed to be the thinnest ILC lens currently in the market.

The sensor fitted on the Pentax K-01 is the same as the one fitted on the Pentax K-5, the company's flagship APS-C sensor DSLR. The K-01 matches the K-5 in functionality. Yet it's priced much lower!

In other words, the K-01 as a more compact and much cheaper K-5! Pentax enthusiasts couldn't have asked for more.

Downers

The Pentax K-01 will not look as attractive to photography enthusiasts shopping for their first ILC because it lacks many of the nifty features on mirrorless ILCs from rival camera manufacturers such as Olympus, Panasonic, Sony and Samsung.

Free angle LCD
Multi touch LCD controls
Optional Electronic Viewfinder

The K-01 is also bigger and heavier than rival products.
