weather-resistant construction perfect for outdoor photography:
A standard-class model equipped with vari-angle LCD monitor and an array of creative functions designed for advanced SLR photography

RICOH IMAGING COMPANY, LTD. is pleased to announce the launch of the PENTAX KF digital SLR camera. The compact, dustproof and weather-resistant body of this standard-class model, designed for all types of outdoor photography, provides a host of advanced, user-friendly features including an optical viewfinder.

Redefining the essential values of SLR photography, the PENTAX KF is designed to provide outstanding imaging performance in a compact body. It features a dustproof, weather-resistant construction and provides dependable cold-proof performance down to temperatures as low as -10°C, performing superbly in a wide range of outdoor photography without being affected by weather conditions. Despite being in the standard class, it incorporates an array of advanced functions and user-friendly features which are usually available only in upper-class models — such as a pentaprism-type optical viewfinder with a nearly 100% field of view and an in-body shake-reduction system with a 4.5 shutter-step compensation. With the PENTAX KF, even first-time SLR users can easily and effortlessly enjoy full-scale SLR photography and the entire process of digital imaging.

Two special-edition color models — crystal blue and crystal white — will be marketed worldwide in a limited quantity of 700 units each.
