We now have the full specification of the upcoming Pentax KP camera. But, before we begin to dig the specification the first thing that caught my eye is it’s immense ISO range offered by Pentax KP that starts from ISO 100 and goes upto 819200.
It’s very clear that Pentax is ready to drop a bombshell on 26, 2017. By having a ISO sensitivity of 819200 it just stands behind the Nikon $2K APS-C flaghip camera Nikon D500.
The Pentax Sensor is capable to record Stills and Full HD videos even in 0.27 to 1.0 lux. The pentax camera can capture high-quality images of things the human eye cannot see.

Awesome, time to upgrade my K-3II
You have 2 BIG Advantage with Pentax KP camera
1. ISO Range upto 819200
2. 5 axis IS
5 axis IS will allow you to use slow shutter speed at night……..so you will get crisp clear images without noise.
Do you think Pentax will do a converted one for astro imaging of red emission nebula.
