Pentax's weather-sealed APS-C — K-70 successor with improved processing and outdoor-ready build.
The Pentax KF launched in 2022 as an update to the K-70, maintaining the weather-sealed APS-C DSLR formula with updated processing. Pentax continues deliberately making DSLRs while other manufacturers focus on mirrorless.
The 24.2MP APS-C sensor delivers good image quality. In-body SR stabilisation works with all K-mount lenses. Hybrid AF with on-sensor phase-detect for improved Live View. Pixel Shift Resolution. Custom image processing profiles.
Weather-sealed body. 3-inch vari-angle LCD. Pentax K mount. Dual AA/lithium battery flexibility. 100% viewfinder coverage. Full HD video. WiFi. Pentax's deliberate DSLR commitment continues.
Available used at budget to mid-range prices. Very similar to the K-70 — incremental updates. Pentax's DSLR commitment is polarising — some appreciate optical viewfinders, others question the system's future. For outdoor photographers wanting weatherproof DSLR with IBIS.
