Without color data, monochrome can more clearly depict the form and texture of a subject using light, shadow and the in-between gradations. This means that the photographer can create images that are more impressive and persuasive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"mText\"\u003eFor users who want to master monochrome photography, the PENTAX K-3 Mark III Monochrome features an image sensor specifically designed to capture monochrome images only. By designing the camera solely for the purpose of monochrome photography, each pixel detects brightness data of the light coming through the lens. The obtained data is then directly converted to compose an image.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"mText\"\u003eTypical color image sensors are designed to receive light passing through red (R), green (G) and blue (B) color filters, so each pixel detects only one color data component. To compose a monochrome image, color sensors must convert color data into monochromatic data by interpolating the obtained color data while using adjacent areas of the image field as a reference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"mText\"\u003eSince a monochrome-specific image sensor can faithfully reflect the brightness data obtained by each pixel in the image — without the interpolation process — the photographer can create extra-fine monochromatic expression, in an image high in resolution and rich in gradation..\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"mText\"\u003eImage quality has been re-evaluated and redesigned to optimize the imaging characteristics of the monochrome-specific image sensor. Unlike a color sensor that requires the interpolation process, each pixel of the monochrome-specific image sensor corresponds precisely to each pixel in the resulting image. The result is minimal deterioration of the data obtained, and optimal visual expression. To optimize these advantages, the imaging process has been completely restructured to assure highly sensitive expression with a natural bokeh (defocus) effect, rich gradation and extra-fine sharpness — an image only the monochrome-specific image sensor can deliver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h2Lit\"\u003eKey Features of the Pentax K-3 III Monochrome Body\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5-Axis SR II In-Body Shake Reduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeather-Sealed Magnesium-Alloy Body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWi-Fi \u0026amp; Bluetooth; Dual SD Card Slots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUHD 4K30p Video Recording\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"gText\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h2Lit\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"h2Lit\"\u003e Monochrome-Specific CMOS Image Sensor \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIncorporating an APS-C-format 25.7MP CMOS sensor, the K-3 Mark III Monochrome is designed without an AA (anti-aliasing) filter for exceptional sharpness, and the monochrome-specific image sensor faithfully reflects the brightness data obtained by each pixel to produce exquisite high-resolution images rich in gradation. An ISO range of 200-1600000 allows the camera to perform in a variety of lighting conditions, and the sensor is paired with a sophisticated image processor to provide quick performance and processing when shooting both stills and video.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h2Lit\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"h2Lit\"\u003e SR II In-Body Shake Reduction \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDistinct among DSLRs, an advanced 5-axis SR II Shake Reduction system provides 5.5 stop-effective image stabilization performance with select lenses.
