A fairly advanced device with an APS-C sensor and a rugged housing that makes shooting outdoors easier. According to the manufacturer, it is the first "reflex camera" at the time of release (October 2013), in which the anti-moire filter is replaced by the "AA simulator" of the original design, which improved image quality. The mentioned sensor has a resolution of 24.3 megapixels and a maximum sensitivity of ISO 51,200, and is also equipped with stabilization due to shift. Two memory slots allow you to install a Wi-Fi adapter along with a regular card. It is also worth noting the high-quality 3.2 "display with 1037K pixels.

Does a full frame make a difference? Is it worth buying a full-frame camera?Do I need to spend money on an expensive full frame or is it better to buy a cropped camera?..

Top protected crop from Pentax with a good silent matrix
  
Excellent matrix 24 megapixels with a crop factor of 1.5. Silent up to 1600 ISO. Further, you can also work, but only with RAW.
I bought a protected lens HD Pentax-DA 20-40mm F2.8-4 Limited DC WR. Expensive, s-ka, but their money is worth it. Quiet and fast, with good aperture and a new anti-reflective coating.
Metal body and comfortable shape. The grip is drop dead comfortable, right under the arm. Mega protection against dust, dirt and water. I didn’t check it with a specialist, but I fell under heavy rain twice and took it off repeatedly in the cold. I survived everything without problems.
Continuous shooting with a fast flash drive practically does not depend on the fact that we are shooting pure jpeg or jpeg + raw. You can actually get up to 5 frames / sec.
Auto exposure works like clockwork. The white balance works well too. No, well, there are jambs, but rarely.
ShakeReduction works by shifting the matrix (electromechanical stabilizer) and when shooting handheld, it really removes small tremors.
HDR camera does high quality and fast. Oh, and how much did you have to mess with the computer before)))
Hi-Speed USB 3.0 speeds up uploading photos to your computer. Of course, you can also take out flash drives and merge them through the card reader, but the cord via USB comes out twice as fast.
Together with the lens, it turned out to be not too heavy, a little more than a kilo. In the backpack, in general, the weight is not felt.
I would like a rear swivel screen.
Insufficient battery capacity. Buy another one, you'll need it.
