Pentax Clearance

October 11, 2009 By Eric Reagan

RitzCamera.com (not the bankrupt brick & mortar stores) is clearing out some Pentax stock.  I checked on a few of the prices and it seems like a pretty good deal for those of you Pentax shooters out there.

There are DSLRs (the K20D seems to be discontinued at most retailers), point and shoot cameras, lenses, flashes, batteries, grips, etc. in the clearance.  Here’s the link.

Pentax K20D Review at Photo.net

October 11, 2008 By Eric Reagan

Photo.net has published a review of the Pentax K20D, which is a huge bargain now..

The K20D would be ideal for travel, nature, macro, and studio photographers. Along with the superior resolution, the weather sealing and high quality compact lens system makes great for nature and travel photographers, and for close to $1000 it’s one of the best cameras on the market if you don’t need a blazing fast fps, or a higher flash sync.

For more reviews of the K20D, check out Photography Bay’s Pentax K20D Reviews and Resources.

Pentax K20D Review at DP Review

June 28, 2008 By Eric Reagan

DP Review has posted a review of the Pentax K20D.

It offers a very pleasant, near pro-level, photographic experience at a reasonable cost and in a body that feels solid, well built and as if it was designed by someone who used one themselves.

Pentax K20D Review at Think Camera

June 17, 2008 By Eric Reagan

Think Camera has posted a review of the Pentax K20D.

All in all, the Pentax K20D is a decent camera with enough features to keep top-end enthusiasts, travel photographers and possibly even some pros happy. It’s not the 14.6megapixel sensor that makes this the camera what it is, that almost doesn’t matter – it’s the combination of intuitive layout, functions and relative ease of use.

Pentax K20D Firmware Update

June 16, 2008 By Eric Reagan

Pentax has issued a firmware update for the K20D.  According to DP Review, the firmware  “addresses the problem characterized on the DPReview forums in which ‘hot’ pixels could appear when the 2-second self times was used.”  The official party line is that new firmware “[m]inimize[s] the noise when taking picture with 2 seconds self-timer mode.”  It is available here for download.

Pentax K20D Review at The Online Photographer

June 10, 2008 By Eric Reagan

The Online Photographer has posted Part 4 (on low light AF) of its report on the Pentax K20D.

It wasn’t “so fast I didn’t notice.” But I’d describe it as “fast.” More important, it was positive. By that I mean that when I pressed the button halfway, the mechanism almost always made one direct move to focus, and stayed there.

Pentax K20D Review at Cnet

June 1, 2008 By Eric Reagan

Cnet has posted a review of the Pentax K20D.

Pentax’s 14MP K20D is a great choice for a midlevel SLR and offers a lot of bang for the buck.

Pentax K20D Review at Camera Labs

May 31, 2008 By Eric Reagan

Pentax K20D

Camera Labs has posted a full review of the Pentax K20D.

It really does capture a great deal of detail and unlike Sony’s 14 Megapixel sensor and processing engine, this detail remains at higher sensitivities.
