>>3070163
Because the Nikon D4s is too expensive.

>>3070179
Wow sony shills really are retarded. He said DSLR not mirrorless.

>>3070163
small af, shit video, even though i don't shoot video.

>>3070220
>shit video, even though i don't shoot video.

t. every reviewer ever who doesn't shoot video and wants to shit on a camera because it isn't a RED Weapon or Black Dickmagic, which are video cameras.

>>3070163
FF pentax is heresy

>>3070163
Because I bought a D800 in 2012 and don't feel any need to upgrade for another 10 years or so.

>>3070230
But video is important.

I already own a D810, what else do I need?

As a pentax user, poo poo glass selection.

I already bought their 645Z they don't need all my money

>>3070304
For Nikon to not go under

>>3070163
pentax FF lenses are extremely expensive compared to canikon

>>3070406
Another D810 owner here:
I kinda hope they do go under and soon. This body will last me until it finally dies which likely won't be for a very long time. A ton of people will jump ship for other systems because loldeadmount, and suddenly, all Nikon lenses become a shitton cheaper.

>>3070432
And they ar basically rebranded tamron

>>3070443
actually no... the cheap lens are going to become cheaper, but high end will get even more expensive. the contrast between the prices are going to be bigger because of supply and demand...

>>3070443

Is your battery door sticking out like a millimeter whenever the battery is in?

>>3070163

>cares about a camera body more than he cares about lenses

The lens selection is shit, the lenses they do have are standard focal length re branded tamshits, they lack any specialty lenses which are required for different areas of work and on top of all this its basically a dead system haemorrhaging money from Ricoh who are already looking to kill the system off completely.

>>3070163
I was hyped for this camera but it's too heavy and I rather have a non-articulating screen. It's very affordable compared to the competition but it's not an investment I want to make right now.

I think it's a great camera, it's just not the camera for me right now. Maybe if pentax releases a budget version I would be all over it:

>no articulating screen
>lower resolution sensor (maybe they can borrow the sensor from an A7s)
>take away all non-essential features
>keep weight under 750g
>keep price under 1000$

I'd be all over that.

>>3070480
This is Reddit: the post
>it's too heavy
>oh wait now it's too high resolution
>it should be worse and cheaper even though it's cheaper than the competition

Yeah let's make it worse to make it cheaper than it's already stellar price point. Kill yourself my man.

>>3070501
Is the D750 worse? Is the A7S worse? Is the A9 worse? Is the 5DMKIV worse?

Manufactures make different tiers for a reason. Some people want to take pictures and don't need all that extra resolution or bulk. Why pay for shit you don't need?

By your logic the only acceptable camera purchase 100MP medium format camera. Anything else is just worse and cheaper.

>people leave system
>demand goes up
nigga wut? Sure after some time the fact that lenses aren't being made any longer will finally outnumber all of the lenses that people are dumping on the market (it'll just be a few pros who don't jump ship because they'll no longer have NPS support, which while nowhere near as good as CPS is still a necessity for many and why Sony isn't pro).

>>3070450
I don't think so. Gimmie a few to check

Well, I'll be. It is. I've popped it off before on accident, but didn't notice this.

>>3070718

Apparently it's a common issue with the D810. Most likely that the spring inside pushes the battery just a slight bit too far, causing that problem.

>>3070708
>Nikon stop producing high-end lens like 300mm2.8 or 105mmm1.4N.
The ones available on market, used, would be expensive as the new ones left behind.

my point of view about Nikon is, if Nikon goes down, they will try to get a Hasselblad status. Few cameras, few lenses, everything even more expensive. But I don't see Nikon going down, it's just a meme

>>3070749

I don't see it happening, at least not very soon. After 100 years, I think they have figured how to stay relevant and competitive. I also dont want my .NEF files to become useless ;_;

https://www.dpreview.com/reviews/pentax-kp-review/6

Pentax is truly the dankest meme.

>>3070878
KP is a retro design, camera comes second, just like with the Df. If you want to compare camera performance try it with the K-70. I know it doesn't look retro, but stop thinking of your camera as a purse for once.

>>3070933
But it uses the exact same hardware as any other Pentax. Don't try and hide behind "muh retro", the fact is, Pentax's """"best"""" is subpar.

1000 Pentax shills just got fired.
>In America, Ricoh is laying off 1,000 workers as it restructures its sales network to reduce overlap with companies it has acquired. In Japan, the company plans to offer early retirement, including to employees who have stayed on past the usual retirement age.
Rest in peperonis
>The Japanese company will radically review a production and manufacturing strategy centered on cameras for the retail market, including such brands as Pentax and GR. Options include withdrawing from this segment altogether.

>>3070938
KP isn't Pentax's best. That would be the K-1, and the MkII is already in the making.

>>3070952
I like how you try to hide the fake news source. It has already been proven false.

Literally the camera that killed Pentax. They were floating about fine, until they took on that project. Should have stuck to low cost APS-C.

Because I want to gravitate back to film.

film is where its at my man.

wish i could. still shooting my k20d. its awesome tho :)

Jesus that looks ugly. Here have a pretty looking camera, this thread needs it.

>>3072367
>ART

>>3072367
pentax KP was supposedly made to be paired with those small beautiful DA limited lenses, except that the KP looks fucking disgusting when used with DA limited lenses because of that huge, tall gap between the lens and pentaprism housing. And if you look, it's just empty space there, absolutely no need for it. Why is it so difficult for camera manufacturers to get this right?

>>3070294
on the same boat tbqh. plus no sigma art lenses on tampax.

>>3072373
There are at least the 30/1.4 Art and the 15-35/1.8 Art, because I have them.
New mount compatibility is on it's way with the new, completely electronic KAF4 mount, retrofitted for K-50 and K-3 as well.
New management only brought progress.

>>3072367
where can i find a decent review for that thing?
