Pentax K-r DSLR Digital Camera Review
The Pentax K-r originally announced in September 2010 is Pentax’s mid-range DSLR camera, a step above an entry-level but not as advanced as their higher end models. Dpreview known for its indepth camera reviews has recently made a detailed review of the Pentax K-r, below is an extract from the review.
The K-r is in many ways a very competent upper entry-level camera. It delivers decent image quality across the ISO range and at six frames per second comes with one of the fastest continuous shooting rates in this class of camera. The only reason that we can’t get as excited about it as we got about the Pentax K-x is that its imaging pipeline and the largest part of its specification are based on the latter and while the K-x offered an awful lot of bang for the buck when it was launched in 2009 the competition has slightly moved on since then, making the K-r not quite as a good deal as the K-x was.
