As photographers, we should be interested in how our photographs, not our cameras, look and to judge the K-01s appearance in this test would be purely subjective. What is important about a camera, though, is that it feels comfortable for a photographer t...
While the K-01 merits an Editor's Choice nomination for its imaging performance, the sluggish AF system in the review camera prevents us from recommending it wholeheartedly. We hope this flaw – and the body design faults we've identified – will be correct...
Вторая беззеркалка Pentax вызвала у фотосообщества с ходу очень противоречивую реакцию, в которой сплелись сильные (но не всегда, опять же, однозначные) эмоции от дизайна, сомнения по поводу необходимости в беззеркалке таких габаритов, горечь из-за отсутс...
Abstract: The K-01 is the latest mirrorless camera offering from Pentax. The sensor is larger than the Pentax Q, and, because this camera is based on the sensor that came with the Pentax K-5, it really means that the Pentax K-01 should not be overlooked as a ser...
Great image quality, compatible with existing K-mount lenses
Noisy autofocus that can be slow and is poor at longer focal lengths, no viewfinder possibility, boxy design, lack of prominent grip inconsistent with K-mount concept, too expensive, confused concept

Great image quality, Kmount compatibility with all Pentax lenses
Noisy autofocus isn’t fast enough, no viewfinder possible, large body size, lack of prominent grip
The Pentax K-01 isn't like anything else on the market. Its unusual exterior may appeal to design aficionados associated with the world of Marc Newson and other designers, but for most average camera users it's too bulky and, on account of its small gr...
setzt auf bestehendes Bajonett und bietet damit große Objektivauswahl, AdobeDNGRAWFormat, gigantische Bildqualität,
langsamer Autofokus, durchwachsenes Design, groß und klobig,
Die Pentax K-01 ist eine hervorragende Kamera für all diejenigen, die einen Schrank voll K-Mount-Objektive haben und eher unbewegte Motive fotografieren. Für den durchschnittlichen Einsteiger in die Welt der Systemkameras gibt es allerdings bessere Al...
The Pentax K-01 is a bravely different but ultimately flawed entry into the mirrorless compact system camera market. Love it or hate it looks aside, the main issue with the K-01 is its sheer size - it's not that much smaller than a regular DSLR and is...
