As the manufacturer’s first foray into the digital medium-format arena, the Pentax 645D brings plenty of appealing features to the game, including a 40Mp, 44x33mm, Kodak-developed CCD sensor that’s designed to deliver professional image quality, exceeding that of a 35mm SLR.
With a nod to Pentax’s original medium-format film 645 camera system, the new digital version looks and feels every bit as solid as its well-respected 1980s-era ancestor, sporting a similarly intuitive design. Despite its retro looks, however, the Pentax 645D is equipped with up-to-date photography technologies and plenty of advanced functionality: all in an easy-to-use package.
