Pentax K200D Review at Camera Labs

July 24, 2008 By Eric Reagan

Camera Labs has posted a review of the Pentax K200D.

While there are a number of aspects to weigh-up, the choice between the K200D and rival DSLRs really boils down to how much you value build quality and Live View. If you want a tough, weatherproof DSLR at a low price, then buy the K200D. If however you’d prefer a smaller, lighter DSLR with Live View capabilities, then go for one of its rivals.

Pentax K200D Review at Photography Review

July 5, 2008 By Eric Reagan

Photography Review has posted a review of the Pentax K200D.

The Pentax K200D is a great digital SLR for beginner, amateur or casual photographers. It’s a very well built camera that reaches out to the beginner crowd. But there are also plenty of “pro” level features that a photographer can grow into.

Pentax K200D Review on PhotographyBLOG

July 5, 2008 By Eric Reagan

PhotographyBLOG has published a review of the entry-level Pentax K200D.

Just like the Pentax K100D Super, the K200D ticks very nearly all of the boxes for those wanting an easy to use DSLR that delivers images you’ll want to keep straight out of the camera, and with the minimum of user input and effort to boot.

Pentax K200D Review at Cnet

April 30, 2008 By Eric Reagan

Cnet has posted a review of the Pentax K200D.

Pentax’s K200D entry-level SLR gives a lot of bang for the buck and has better performance than last year’s model. Despite low noise and pleasingly detailed images, technically inaccurate colors keep it from capturing the gold medal for image quality.

The handling of the K200D is very simple yet it maintains a reassuring, more professional build quality. Images are sure to please even the most critical photographer, with few serious problems bar slight underexposure on rare occaisions.

Pentax K200D Review at Photo Review

April 10, 2008 By Eric Reagan

Photo Review has posted its review of the Pentax K200D.

Pictures from the test camera had a superficial resemblance to our test shots from the K20D, particularly with respect to the extended dynamic range provided by both cameras. However, the K200D showed less inclination to bias exposures slightly in favour of recording highlight details and the yellow-brown cast we found in test shots taken with the K20D shots was much less evident.
