Sharpness
With its default lens, the K-5’s sharpness rating stood way out from the rest of our comparison group. At similar focal lengths and apertures the K-5 often outperformed Nikon’s D7000 by approximately 30%, and was able to outperform Pentax’s own K-x by more than double. More on how we test sharpness.
Image Stabilization
The K-5’s shake reduction performed poorly, particularly during low shake scenarios such as shooting from the hand.
Chris was born and raised less than ten miles from our editorial office, and even graduated from nearby Merrimack College. He came to Reviewed after covering the telecommunications industry, and has been moonlighting as a Boston area dining critic since 2008.
