    Pentax Pentax Q samples

    I had never played around with the Pentax Q "Digital Filters" (in camera) before... not as you take the photo, but in processing in the camera after taking the original photos. I started with a Bracketed Exposure set of three images (normal, over, under) and then played around with the digital...

    Pentax Alternative Viewfinder for your Q?

    Check user Pinholecam's work in this thread. He is my inspiration and uses the same lens on the Q. :)

    Pentax Alternative Viewfinder for your Q?

    Ah! Thanks for that link. However, it was not posted in the Pentax Q forum! (The Pentax viewfinder is over $200, in the U.S. so this may have special interest here.)

    Pentax Alternative Viewfinder for your Q?

    The chrome Carl Zeiss Jena Tessar 40mm f4.5 T is (for now) on the Q just for looks. As a preset lens (10 aperture blades) it needs a secure mount and the Pentax m42 adapter into a K-mount adapter isn't it. I need a "real" m42 to Q adapter before I can actually try this combo. But the other...

    Pentax Pentax Q samples

    These are among the first images taken with my Pentax Q and 8.5mm f1.9 lens. These are all from JPEGS (haven't even put the camera in RAW+ mode yet). Also my first experiments with Snapseed and processing on the iPad2. These 4 were all done over a half-hour lunch break at work. Alongside...

    Pentax Pentax Q $399 at Amazon

    Crutchfields currently has the Black or White 01 kit for $399 and is including the $99 Vintage Leather case for it, free. Dang! pentax q at Crutchfield.com I just paid $395 for a (3036 shutter count) used kit, but I did get an extra battery, a metal JPP hood for the 8.5mm and two Kipon adapters...

    Pentax The Pentax Q - a real World user review

    I don't think the Q is going to be better in overall performance or iq (especially when you get into higher ISOs). AF glass on a k-o1 is still going to be AF glass ( not so on the Q). And the Q reportedly requires Good Glass to avoid CA as the smaller high MP sensor is sensitive to that. We...

    Pentax The Pentax Q - a real World user review

    I don't know the answer to your question, specifically, but Pentax has something figured out. The Sony Exmor backlit sensor in the K-5 is in other cameras (for example), yet the K-5 is regarded by many to have the best IQ of any APS-C camera out there. This is all the more impressive to me when...

    Pentax The Pentax Q - a real World user review

    A f1.9 kit returned to Amazon (next-to-new) sold on Amazon Warehouse Deals yesterday for $335 (quickly). I personally think it is a BUY NOW at anything close to that. And frankly, it is much more than a modern Pentax 110. A film 110 could not produce images rivaling the 35mm film cameras of the...

    Pentax The Pentax Q - a real World user review

    Pinholecam, I just wanted to thank you for a post you made on the Pentax Forums. It was a post that made me look at the Pentax Q in a serious way, for the first time. It was not this excellent review (although I found that shortly afterwards) but instead it was a post that was rebutting a...
