A hybrid camera mirrorless again present at the beginning of 2012 and we are ready to welcome him with joy. If previously they had issued a series of Pentax Q, which became the most petite mirrorless camera in the world, today released Pentax Pentax K-01. As Q Pentax, Pentax K-01 is one more camera without a mirror (mirrorless), but with a larger body and control system which looks like a DSLR. So Pentax K-01 will deal with competitors like the Olympus E Series or Panasonic Lumix G Series. The surplus, K-01 using a 16 megapixel CMOS sensor APS-C sized larger than the Micro Four Thirds sensor.

This approach is not new, considering that Sony has to do with the NEX-Series. Then, K-01 can use the lens with the Pentax mount is pretty much available on the market.

To performannya, Pentax K-01 are able to do 6 shots within 1 second, reliable in low-light conditions thanks to the support of ISO 25 600 and the resulting movie-quality Full-HD 1080p at 30 fps.

On paper, Pentax K-01 is promising, although the design seems a little messing around. But with the support of the lens is fairly complete, plus the APS-C CMOS sensor which on paper has the equivalent of a DSLR, Pentax K-01 is promising. The main package consists of two options: body only (U.S. $ 749) and the lens PENTAX-DA 40mm F2.8 XS (U.S. $ 899).
