Description
Meet the X70, the new all-purpose camera from Pentax, and its wide-angle 24x optical zoom lens (equivalent to 26-624mm in 35mm format).
The versatile optical lens is able to accommodate a wide range of subjects. Whether you shoot landscapes or faces, indoors or out, up close or at a distance, the X70's 12-megapixel sensor captures every detail.
A large aperture of f/2.8 (wide angle position) and a mechanical stabiliser guarantee impeccable clarity, even in with a telephoto lens. The X70 also ensures perfectly exposed images thanks to its Dynamic Range Adjustment, and its face detection feature can capture up to 32 faces and detect smiles giving you flawless portraits and group photos every time.
The Pentax X70 can capture high definition video allowing you to shoot high-quality video without a camcorder. Thanks its anti-shake protection, your films will be blur-free.
Even the most demanding photographers will enjoy taking advantage of the X70's manual exposure modes with opening or shutter speed priority to customise their pictures. | | Type | Type | Bridge |
