Even though the new Pentax K-3 offers a very robust and massive body, it is quite compact; it's only slightly larger than the ultra-compact Canon EOS Rebel SL1, although it's almost double the weight.

Pentax has introduced an excellent dSLR into the mid-level range. Its APS-C sized 24-Megapixel CMOS sensor, built-in SR stabilization, 1080p HD video and fantastic performance and quality make it a true challenger in this market.

: This 24mp DSLR is weather-sealed with image stabilisation by sensor shift. It has a true pentaprism optical viewfinder with 100 per cent coverage. The special feature of the K-3 is the removal of the anti-aliasing filter, promising sharper images.

The PENTAX K-3 was made to compete with the top brands of the DSLR-world and the competition is close, but with its price and exemplary features, the PENTAX K-3 is creating some distance.

Great image quality; Rugged build; Water-resistant

Insufficient autofocus for video

The Pentax K-3 -- Pentax's top-of-the-line model -- wins awards as the most full-featured prosumer DSLR camera on the market. With great performance, excellent image quality and superior handling, the rugged K-3 is a semi-pro camera that successfully competes with its Canon and Nikon rivals.

27-point autofocus system; Excellent high ISO quality; Weather-sealed for extreme temperatures; Anti-aliasing option

We recently had Pentax's new flagship, the 24 megapixel K-3, to shoot with. Here are five features we liked best (and a few we didn't). Pick up the K-3 and you know you're dealing with a well-made machine, since it comes complete with a stainless steel chassis and a magnesium alloy body,...

Great weatherproof body; Good layout of buttons; Anti-aliasing filters simulator onboard, 8.3 Fps shooting
