Pentax has a history of producing popular 35mm SLRs, but it’s fair to say that its digital SLRs have yet to steal a significant market share from Canon, Nikon and Sony. That could change with the K-7, an enthusiast-level model that looks similar to the year-old K20D, but incorporates a whole host of additions and enhancements, including an improved 14.6-megapixel sensor that also captures HD video. Daniel Lezano casts an expert eye over the K-7 and determines whether it has enough in its arsenal to offer a real alternative to other £1,000+ models

Priced at only £400 with the standard 18-55mm zoom lens, it’s set to go head to head with the likes of the Sony Alpha 200 and Canon EOS 1000D. Models at this price point are traditionally small and lightweight, with a decent specification and a simple to use control set-up – key selling points for beginners looking for their first DSLR. We find out if the Pentax K-m is good enough to appeal to first-time users. more...
