Here are all of our Pentax SLR digital camera reviews, listed alphabetically by model.


	Pentax 645D 40.0 megapixel, Pro SLR, Non-Zoom Though big and pricey, the Pentax 645D is surprisingly nimble and makes amazing pictures. We took the 645D for a few spins around town and ran it through our test lab and were amazed at the detail it captured. Released December 2010	$6997-8799 Initial Test

	Pentax K-01 16.3 megapixel, Compact System Camera, Non-Zoom Pentax goes its own way with a mirrorless camera that accepts standard K-mount lenses. That means access to a huge back catalog of quality optics without an adapter. Unfortunately, it also necessitates a body that's barely any smaller than a standard SLR. Released March 2012	$300-350 Review

	Pentax K-5 16.3 megapixel, Pro SLR, 3.00x Zoom With a brand-new 16-megapixel sensor, ~6.5 frames per second burst rate, and an unusually wide expanded ISO sensitivity range of 80 to 51,200 equivalents, the Pentax K-5 takes over the flagship position in Pentax's APS-C digital SLR lineup, replacing 2009's K-7 model. Released October 2010	$829-1750 Full Review

	Pentax K-5 II 16.3 megapixel, Pro SLR, 7.50x Zoom Released October 2012	$1247-1444 Initial Test

	Pentax K-5 IIs 16.3 megapixel, Pro SLR, Non-Zoom Released October 2012	$1097-1099 First Shots

	Pentax K-30 16.3 megapixel, SLR, 7.50x Zoom Pentax takes features commonly associated with enthusiast-level DSLRs, and places them in a mid-range model that the rest of us can afford. With a great pentaprism viewfinder, a weather-sealed body, and twin control dials, the Pentax K-30 offers a lot of bang for the buck. Throw in much the same imaging configuration as the mirrorless K-01, and you're looking at a mighty interesting camera. Released July 2012	Review

	Pentax K-r 12.4 megapixel, SLR, 3.00x Zoom Released October 2010	$569-629 Full Review

	Pentax Q 12.4 megapixel, Compact System Camera, Non-Zoom Pentax produces a small-sensor digital camera with interchangeable lenses, a first for the digital camera industry. If your interchangeable-lens camera sits at home on the shelf because it's too big, the Pentax Q be the camera you're looking for, but is it too extreme for the rest of us? Released September 2011	$318-629 Review

	Pentax Q10 12.4 megapixel, Compact System Camera, 3.00x Zoom Released October 2012	Preview
