The Pentax K20D review

I don’t really hear much of this camera brand since most of my friends use Nikon or Canon. However, the The Pentax K20D kinda sounds cool and its a 14.6 megapixel digital SLR. Sure having more megapixels does not make a picture nicer but hey, its just specs in the end that consumers love and loathe. I’d write my own review if I can find a demo unit. Unit weighs: 25.2 oz.
“The K20D finds itself in an uncomfortable position, looking pricey compared to mid-range DSLRs and not quite tough or fast enough to be considered a true semi-pro model. An unremarkable screen and restricted Live View system add further insult to injury.
But one look at the K20D’s images and you know you’re dealing with something special. 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. And like the K10D before it, the decent viewfinder, comfortable grip, innovative exposure modes, twin control dials and vast degree of customisation makes it a great camera to use in traditional photographic terms.
