The DSLR is not dead yet: new Pentax K1 Mark III camera rumors


Ricoh is rumored to announce a new Pentax K1 Mark III camera - here are the leaked specifications:

  • SAFOX 14 autofocus system
  • New full-format sensor, again from Sony, 3 different sensors are installed in the prototypes, for the series I’m guessing the 61M BSI CMOS million pixel sensor
  • Very fast fps
  • 4K (and higher) video
  • USB C 3.2 connection
  • Joystick
  • Touchscreen (thankfully can be switched off)
  • New smart functions (including those that the K3 III doesn’t have yet)
  • Bluetooth / WiFi
  • New control software for the cell phone (with live view)
  • GPS built-in
  • Astrotracer built-in
  • Key illumination
  • Very solid workmanship, very good feel
  • Of course, the optical viewfinder (but significant improvements in the information display)
  • Production is scheduled to start in Vietnam in October
  • LCD display with a slightly higher resolution than the K1 III
  • The battery remains the same as in the K1 II, 645Z and other Pentax
  • Two CF Express memory card slots
