This camera is a welcome addition to my Pentax line up. It's GPS and Astrotracer functions are great. This camera is not for the beginner although well organized menus,and speed make it a pleasure to use.

Pentax K-3 II
The Pentax K-3 II keeps almost everything we loved from the superb K-3, then replaces the popup flash with an in-camera GPS -- not just for automatic geotagging, but also for freezing star-trails in astrophotography.
Pros:
- Top-notch image quality
- Spectacular detail from Pixel Shift Resolution
- Better performance than K-3
- Geotag images with no accessories
- Great ergonomics in a compact body
- Clever on-demand low-pass filtering
- Broad sensitivity range
- Large and bright viewfinder for an APS-C camera
- Dual card slots
Cons:
- No built-in flash strobe
- No wireless flash support out of the box
- AstroTracer function can be finicky
- AE Lock button is poorly located
- Below-average battery life for a prosumer DSLR
- Requires a different battery grip accessory than its predecessors

A very nice kit, with the K-3 II and the 16-85 in the same package! I must admit, that I wanted the lens at a more attractive price, and did not manage to find it on its own, at my desired price, so this was a way to manage that wish!

Very nice camera with weather sealing
Very nice camera, a little outdated but with a solid and robust construction (weather sealed), and to get effective sealing you need to use a WR lens like this one: http://amzn.to/2s6y0O6 This camera works with old Pentax lenses, and the focus motor embedded in the body is very fast.

Best APSC camera
Pentax offer the best ergonomic and working APSC cameras! I have used since 2006, with my first K10 from Pentax... K3 II is the big evolution to use old and marvelous lenses even from Pentax or Takumar, planned on K-mount engineering.
