In our Pentax K-5 II review video we test whether this new Pentax DSLR offers a true upgrade over the Pentax K-5.
The Pentax K-5 II was announced (along with the K-5 II S) as the replacement for the K-5, but externally you’d be hard-pressed to find much difference between the Pentax K-5 II vs K-5.
On both cameras the design and button layout is identical. In fact, apart from the addition of the ‘II’ in the name, the only other exterior update is the camera’s improved LCD.
But what does the Pentax K-5 II offer under the hood? In our Pentax K-5 II review video, Ali Jennings of our testing team takes a look at what this latest release from Pentax has to offer photographers who already have the K-5, or anyone simply looking to upgrade from their current camera.
