Pentax Kr DSLR an affordable and user-friendly camera Mr. DigiDirect | Tuesday, December 21, 2010Comments [2]

The Pentax Kr is a mid-range DSLR camera targeted at digital SLR novices and family users who are looking to migrate from their compact cameras. Sporting a 12.4 megapixel sensor and 6fps continuous shooting, the Pentax Kr has a compact, lightweight body with a stainless-steel chassis, 11-point AF system, ISO 25600, 720p movies, high-resolution 3.0-inch LCD monitor, Shake Reduction mechanism and support for the supplied lithium-ion battery and AA-size batteries.

The following features will surely tempt any potential photographer to make the move to the world of DSLRs:

- high-quality image reproduction with approximately 12.4 effective megapixels
- HD 720p movie recording
- High-speed continuous shooting at approximately six images per second
- Super-high-sensitivity shooting at ISO 25600 (via a custom function)
- A large, easy-to-view 3.0-inch high-resolution colour LCD monitor

The Kr offers outstanding performance and versatility, almost the equivalent of more advanced DSLR cameras, while allowing the photographer to easily deal with different photographic situations.  The Kr also includes a dual-power-source design offering a choice between the standard rechargeable lithium-ion battery and a set of AA-size batteries.
