Pentax K-70 Street Photography Settings and Camera Review in a Small Town

Показать описание
The under-rated Pentax K70 w/18-135mm WR lens is a lot of camera in a little body! This is a powerful camera, offering a lot of control and great results. I purchased this camera primarily to have an actual waterproof/water resistant camera, not just a 'weather resistant' camera like Fuji claims to be. This means you can actually submerge your Pentax K70 under running water (as is shown in this video) and it's fine, no water damage. I doubt you can do that with Fuji or Canon that claim 'weather resistant.'

Nonetheless, WR is not the only benefit of this APS-C sensor camera. It's a tank, but it's also capable for producing excellent quality images, and performs better in high ASO than most cameras in it's price range, and above.

The sharpness of the camera's built-in stabilization, along with the WR 18-135mm Pentax DA lens make this a great bad weather combo, but also a great camera for any type of photography you'll need it for, from amateur to pro applications.

I'll be producing a video in the next couple of weeks that will go indepth with the many features this Pentax K70 offers, and hope you will subscribe to my channel so you can be notified when the video drops.

I can’t believe this camera is considered a beginner camera. Sure it is not a sport camera but with shake reduction, the Astro features, weather resistance, it is above many of the new more expensive cameras. I love mine.

This is my current camera. I have been a Pentax user for 50 years. Thanks for the video-look forward to more!

Hi Jason!!
I enjoyed the video! I have heard good things about the K70. I have always liked Pentax cameras. In fact my second camera was a 35mm film Pentax ME Super and a MG.
Best wishes
Duane

Hi from the UK, i've just bought a K70(yet to arrive)so been hunting through youtube vids and found this, i'm impressed already and cant wait to play with it, i'm converting from olympus M43 because of my love for vintage lenses, to which pentax have 1000's, have you tried vintage lenses on theK70, also would you know what the shutter life is?

I like my K70 have had zero problems with mine I have used it for wildlife, astrophotography with the astrotracker module as well as Protrait photography and landscape photography. The flip screen gives me more options than my other fixed screen Pentax cameras. It is a good all around performer camera.

I mentioned that I was thinking of a f70 in another video, well, I pulled the trigger and won an auction on ebay for a new one. Thanks for your input.

Do you see any similarities of the k70 and GR image quality. There is something with that k70 that makes the photos pop

Do you have an opinion on the K70 vs the KP? Would like to get the KP but not sure they are available anymore (new), so am thinking of the K70...thanks!

My first Pentax camera was a Pentax MX film camera. Loved that thing until it was stolen 😞 Went on to a Pentax ME super, then a Pentax K10D, K5, & now the K-70. It's been quite a journey but still loving it.

Pentax is beautiful. Their only fault is weak marketing. They don't pay money to all the "10 Best" lists.

God that side hinged flippy flappy screen is a disaster for street. They should be banned.
