11-point Auto Focus
16-segment Metering
The K-Series features an 11-point autofocus system. In automatic opera-
tion (AUTO) the camera recognizes which object is nearest and chooses
that object as the main focus point. For more direct control, select any of
the 11 points individually. It is also possible to simply select the center
of the image as your main point of focus. With continuous autofocus,
the focus adjusts as your subject moves within the frame, or should you
prefer more direct control, you may always focus manually.
The K-Series easily handles even the most dicult lighting conditions
with its 16-segment metering system. The system will accurately assess
the balance between the bright and dark areas within the segments
automatically, or you may opt for center weighted or spot metering.
Flexible RAW Button
The RAW button on PENTAX DSLR bodies allows you to quickly change your
le format while shooting without having to navigate through an extensive
series of menus. You may customize this button to switch to your preferred
format and to either remain at that setting, or remain
there for only one exposure.
