The Pentax KF DSLR camera kit (black) with the PENTAX DA L 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 AL WR lens is designed to deliver high-resolution imaging. Equipped with a state-of-the-art CMOS image sensor boasting approximately 24.24 effective megapixels and high-speed 14-bit image data readout, the Pentax KF captures super-high-resolution images. Coupled with a high-performance accelerator unit and the high-speed PRIME MII imaging engine, the camera effectively minimizes noise at all sensitivity levels, delivering rich-gradation, fine-detailed images even at a top sensitivity of ISO 102400.

The Pentax KF is a dependable performer, with a compact and easy-to-carry body featuring dustproof, weather-resistant construction with 100 seals throughout the body and outstanding cold-proof performance at temperatures down to -14°F. This makes it suitable for use in demanding outdoor settings such as rain, fog, or snow, or at locations prone to dust and freezing temperatures.

The camera incorporates a glass prism viewfinder with the same optics and coatings as those used in higher-level models, providing a large, clear view of the subject with approximately 100% field of view and 0.95-times magnification for quick and easy confirmation of focusing and framing.

The bundle includes the Pentax KF DSLR camera kit, the PENTAX DA L 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 AL WR lens, the Ricoh Pentax O-GPS2 GPS unit, a Nostrand Avenue camera system gadget bag with an accessory and cleaning kit, a software bundle of 4 OEM photo, video, and art software suites, and a 64GB Extreme Pro SDXC UHS-I memory card.

The O-GPS2 GPS unit mounts on the hot shoe of the camera and records the latitude, longitude, altitude, universal time coordinated (UTC), and direction of the shooting location onto captured images. The Astrotracer function couples the unit with the camera's shake reduction system, allowing for improved astrophotography.

The Pentax KF's outdoor-friendly LCD monitor features selectable brightness levels and a night vision red light function that reduces strain on the user's eyes when shooting in dark places. Additionally, the camera provides a host of wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) functions to support operations using smartphones and tablet computers, enabling remote live view, image capture, and camera setting adjustments through the dedicated Image Sync application.
