Additional Pentax K-3 III information (video)

Ricoh released a new video with additional information on the Pentax K-3 III camera. Here is a recap of the new improvements and features described in the video:

  • New viewfinder optics with a higher magnification factor of which the displayed image is also brighter, with the addition of a new condenser lens and with an overlaid LCD information display, too
  • New metering system with 307k colour pixels which has better metering accuracy and also helps the tracking of moving objects
  • New high-speed mirror and shutter driving mechanism
  • New PRIME V processor and high ISO performance which is better than that of the K-1 II in terms of noise/details as well as reproduced colours (but that the ISO performance of the K-1 II is really rather outdated by today’s standard, nonetheless). New Fine Sharpness II setting option is also made available for in-camera JPEG sharpening
  • New SAFOX 13 AF module of which the layout is shown in the below diagram:
