Overview
Professional quality photography
The Pentax K-3 Mark III premium SLR camera reveals its great potential for capturing the most beautiful shots. This APS-C model is equipped with a 25.73 megapixel CMOS sensor, the new Prime V processor and a high-performance AF system. With built-in 5-axis stabilisation, a bright optical viewfinder, a touchscreen LCD and 4K video, all the ingredients are in place to get the perfect emotion from behind your Pentax.
Excellence
For even greater definition, the PENTAX K-3 Mark III is equipped with a 25.73 effective megapixel back-illuminated CMOS sensor. Combining the new high-density RGB-lr sensor with the high-performance PRIME V processor, the Real-time Scene Analysis System instantly detects the subject's face and eyes using state-of-the-art recognition technology.
In addition, this model features five-axis SRII stabilisation to compensate for camera shake at up to 5.5 shutter speeds. Finally, the Pixel Shift Resolution function captures 4 images of the same scene by moving the sensor across each pixel for each frame, then combining them into a single image.
Masterful design
Thanks to a new, much faster mirror drive mechanism, more precise shutter control and the PRIME V processor with high data transmission, the PENTAX K-3 Mark III offers a burst rate of up to 12 fps (AF.S), or approximately 11 fps (AF.C).
The PENTAX K-3 Mark III has been expanded from 27 to 101 frames. The autofocus area has also been considerably expanded. Of the 41 user-selectable points, 25 are cross-type sensors. This high-density AF system improves the flexibility of image composition, while optimising the accuracy of focus on the subject.
Sharpen your eye
The PENTAX K-3 Mark III features a high-performance viewfinder with a pentaprism made of high refractive index glass and a magnification of approximately 1.05 times. By using distortion-corrected optical elements and optimised lens coatings, the K-3 Mark III delivers a viewfinder that is 10% brighter (than the K-3 II), more realistic and distortion-free.
Meanwhile, the3.2-inch HD touchscreen with approximately 1,620,000 dots features air-gapless technology that eliminates air from the screen to reduce glare. To prevent the nose from bumping into the screen, the viewfinder protrudes from the back of the camera.
Ready for your creativity
The PENTAX K-3 Mark III records movies in 4K 30 fps resolution. The camera's touch screen makes it easy to select video recording modes and exposure settings, while SR II stabilisation compensates for vibrations during video recording.
This SLR has two SD card slots. One slot is UHS-II compliant for high-speed data writing. You can record files to two separate memory cards, with a choice of recording modes: Sequential, Duplicate and RAW/JPEG Separation, and copy images from one card to the other.
