The new flagship model of the PENTAX K series, the PENTAX K-1 II full-frame digital SLR camera, provides exceptional image quality and unprecedented performance. This model boasts outstanding image quality, excellent super-high-sensitivity imaging performance, and much-improved operability, making it suitable for a wider range of subjects and scenes.

By coupling a newly incorporated accelerator unit with the PRIME IV imaging engine, the PENTAX K-1 II assures flawless, high-speed operation and excellent noise-reduction, improving image quality and super-high-sensitivity imaging performance. The PENTAX-developed Pixel Shift Resolution System II, the latest super-resolution technology designed to optimize the image sensor's imaging performance, has been upgraded. This system features a newly developed Dynamic Pixel Shift Resolution mode, which allows the photographer to capture super-high-sensitivity images in handheld shooting, by detecting the slight fluctuations of the subject's position during continuous shooting.

In addition to the conventional shooting style using a tripod, this innovative mode provides a new option for the photographer to enjoy super-high-sensitivity photography with a wider variety of subjects and scenes. The camera also comes equipped with a host of features and functions designed to optimize the photographer's creativity and operational comfort, including a dependable magnesium-alloy body with dust proof, weather-resistant construction; an optical viewfinder with a nearly 100-percent field of view for real-time subject confirmation; a sophisticated shake-reduction system; and a flexible tilt-type LCD monitor to accommodate various shooting angles.

The PENTAX K-1 II BODY KIT includes the following accessories: RECHARGEABLE-ION BATTERY D-LI90(B), BATTERY CHARGER D-BC90, FINDER CAP FOR ME, AC PLUG CORD D-CO2E, PENTAX STRAP O-ST162, EYECUP FT, HOTSHOE COVER FK, BODY MOUNT CAP KII, SYNCHRO TERMINAL 2P CAP, and PENTAX K-1 TRIANGULAR RING PENTAX, as well as a PENTAX K-1 PROTECTIVE COVER.

The PENTAX K-1 II boasts a high resolution of 36.4 effective megapixels, ensuring that details are shown clearly and delivering outstanding quality images. The optical viewfinder with nearly 100% field of view assures a clear view of the subject and ease of focus. The camera's top sensitivity of ISO819200, enabled by its state-of-the-art imaging processing system, greatly improves image quality, even in low light situations.

The Pixel Shift Resolution system II, a Pentax technology, produces high-quality images beyond the power of traditional image capture. The new-generation shake reduction II, a five-axis, five-shutter-step camera shake compensation system, provides exceptional stability. The camera's dustproof, weather-resistant construction, a combination of the K-1 Mark i's 87 weather seals and the optional d-bg6 Battery grip's watertight design, prevents the intrusion of water and dust. Additionally, the Dust removal II mechanism effectively removes all dust particles from the image sensor surface, preventing unwanted spots from appearing on the captured image.
