Review: This is an awesome camera for astrophotography! - I purchased this camera mainly for astrophotography, but it takes great daytime pictures as well. I also have an Olympus Micro four thirds camera as well. This camera has much less noise than the Olympus, but it is quite a bit heavier. It is worth the trade-off when doing astrophotography. The Pentax cameras are even very low noise even with ISO 1600 3 minute shots. The Pentax is also great at picking up Hydrogen Alpha in nebulae. This has certainly allowed me to get better pictures than my Olympus. I was going to buy a dedicated astronomy camera, but it would have been more than double the price for the same size sensor and this camera can still be used for regular photography. What I like: 1. It is easy to use. 2. Low noise in low light. 3. It is amazing for astrophotography. 4. There are a large selection of lenses available at a decent price. 5. It is water resistant. 6. The 18-135 mm lens is a great all around lens and it is water resistant as well. 7. You get greater quality and features for the money when compared to Canon or Nikon equivalents. What could be improved? 1. I wish there was better computer control available. I would like to be able to use tethering during my astrophotography sessions. 2. Dual memory cards would be nice. 3. USB tethering and shooting at the same time. The camera does not take pictures while tethered, but you can take pictures with a wireless app. 4. It would be nice if the GPs were built into the camera so the Astro-tracer feature could be used without purchasing an external GPS sensor. Iā€™m really enjoying this camera and Iā€™m happy with the purchase. Iā€™m really surprised Pentax does not market more towards the night photography crowd. I've included shots that I have taken of the Double Star Cluster, Fireworks Galaxy, Helix Nebula, Pacman Nebula, and Triangulum Galaxy. All were shot on a Celstron AVX equatorial tracking mount with a Celestron 6" SCT telescope and the Pentax K-70 with a T- adapter. Review: Happy with the camera, will see more of what it can do once camping season starts. - Good camera but the only thing was it didn't come with the lens hood like advertised. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Aspect ratio | Unknown | | Compatible mountings | Pentax KAF | | Image stabilisation | Dynamic | | Maximum focal length | 135 Millimeters | | Photo sensor technology | CMOS | | Supported file format | RAW | ## Product Details - **Aspect Ratio:** Unknown - **Compatible Mountings:** Pentax KAF - **Expanded ISO Minimum:** 100 - **Image Stabilization:** Dynamic - **Maximum Aperture:** 3.5 Millimeters - **Maximum Focal Length:** 55 - **Metering Description:** Center-Weighted Average, Spot - **Optical Zoom:** 3 x - **Photo Sensor Technology:** CMOS - **Supported File Format:** RAW ## Images ![Pentax K-70 Weather-Sealed DSLR Camera with 18-135mm Lens (Black) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91OsDxu2+yL.jpg) ![Pentax K-70 Weather-Sealed DSLR Camera with 18-135mm Lens (Black) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71WEHDiUH1L.jpg) ![Pentax K-70 Weather-Sealed DSLR Camera with 18-135mm Lens (Black) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81RxqtjPJYL.jpg) ![Pentax K-70 Weather-Sealed DSLR Camera with 18-135mm Lens (Black) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71J1SMh3gKL.jpg) ![Pentax K-70 Weather-Sealed DSLR Camera with 18-135mm Lens (Black) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71j-CguB5AL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ā­ā­ā­ā­ā­ This is an awesome camera for astrophotography! *by D***Y on 3 December 2018* I purchased this camera mainly for astrophotography, but it takes great daytime pictures as well.

I have over 15 Pentax lenses, even lenses from 1980 that can be used with this camera mount, and at this point, it would not make sense for me to switch brands, because my glass collection is extensive. With that being said, I dont want to come off sounding like a brand ambassador, which although I love Pentax, my last camera was a K50, and I experienced the dead aperture block, which Pentax is surely aware of, but had no interest in helping me fix it, even though it only had 1800 shutter count on it, I still feel a little salty about that. With that being said, I always tell people to make the comparison with features that fit your needs......Being a hotly contested market for the 650 dollar price range, you cant really go wrong with any of the major manufacturers. However there are a lot of features that I feel always push me towards Pentax, that the other manufacturers do not offer such as weatherproofing............ that def helps from a durability standpoint. Not having to worry about weather really sets this camera apart from every other competitor in this price range. No other manufacturer offers weather sealing at this price point.........Period. The next REALLY important feature that you have to use to compare, is the fact that the body of the camera has image stabilization BUILT IN! I cannot overstate how important that one feature alone is.......It allows you to use film era lenses, and manual lenses, without the need to buy EXPENSIVE lenses with Image Stabilization built into them. Ergonomics..................... Idk what it is, but whenever I go into Best Buy, I hold a Can, or Nikon and they just feel like a big chunk of plastic, but not of the solid variety. Very hollow is my best feeling of those two brands. In my opinion they could afford to make the body smaller or more compact. The K70 has no such issues. It is a very solid body that is well crafted, and feels substantial in the hands, not hollow feeling. All of the buttons and dials are within a quick reach to access all of the functions that need to be used on a daily basis. A lot of thought goes into the ergonomics of Pentax cameras, and you can tell once your holding it, that this is a great feeling camera in the hands. The menus have been uplifted, and simplified over previous bodies, making it very easy to understand. Another feature that cannot be overlooked, is the two dial system......one in front of the shutter for F stops, and another behind the shutter for other functions, as it is customizable. Too many new cameras only have one dial, which really doesnt help when you need to reach certain functions.....with the K70, you can reach them without looking. Nice little touches, like night mode, which makes the screen red, so its easy on the eyes, is really nice. As far as image quality goes, I have not looked at other brands, however I can tell you by reactions of my photography from other people.........the usual reaction is........ WOW. The pictures REALLY pop and have intense detail........doesnt matter what the subject is, the pictures always come out pleasant, and have excellent colors and saturation. The move to an articulating screen which was new on the KS2 ( previous model) is a nice touch. I always thought to myself......Why would I use a tilting screen? But since I have it on this camera, I have been using it ALOT! It really is a god send, when you are trying to take pictures in awkward positions........The focus in live view has also been improved extensively from older Pentax models, and there is no delay when taking pictures anymore......it just WORKS! Another unique feature, is a mode in camera called Pixel Shift, where when taking the picture, the sensor moves to the right and to the left snapping off 3 frames, only increasing the quality of the image ( with a tripod of course) I thought it to be gimmiky when reading about it, but wow, it really works well! And then there is the penta prism that is used for the optical viewfinder. Yes, you may think its a pretty small deal, but when you look through the K70s view finder, compared the other brands mentioned before, I feel like their viewfinders are DARK. Not terrible, but not clear like the Pentax Penta Prism is. Its bright, clear, and provides a 95% view of what you are taking a picture of.....where other brands are a lower %.....making it unpredictable, of what is going to fit in the frame when the picture is processed. The last advantage over other brands, is the shutter speed. 1/6000 shutter speed really does make a difference. You will see that other brands possess a 1/4000 max shutter speed, which in 2017 is unacceptable.....especially when you need to freeze the action, the shutter speed really makes a difference! Now the Bad. Not all bad news, but there are things that must be pointed out that I didnt cover in the Pros, because they deserve to be in the Cons section. Movie mode. MEH, is the best description of movie mode. Its there, and it has video autofocusing, but the movie mode is not very well hashed out. When moving the camera around, the movie becomes jittery, and wobbles.........but when you stop it goes back into focus.......but in all honesty, people do not buy Pentax for Video mode. It is something that has plagued Pentax from the very first camera body that made use of video....they are woefully behind, but it doesnt really bother me...... I buy Pentax for its still imaging prowess......if you want a video camera, buy a video camera! Next is WiFI Yes, it has Wifi, however its a little difficult to pair with your device, and a little hard to get it to work properly. On top of that the pictures take over a minute to arrive at your phone or device.....IMO they need to improve upon this. Its great in a pinch, when you want to send it to your phone, but it is in no way as seamless as it couldve been........You can use your phone to control almost all of the features, which is definitely a nice feature, but is a little slow.......... The last thing, and I dont like to bring this up, because it does not hinder my photography ability whatsoever, but it could be a problem for people that rely on autofocus, that do not use manual settings. It only has 11 focus points. Is it fast? I think it is. I never EVER have an issue with it. It usually decides on the focus pretty darn fast, and decisively, which is great. Its just that other manufacturers cameras in this segment have 18-35 focus points. Not a con for me, but may be for others. I feel as though it does not have a lot of focus points, it still is really good with the 11 it has. So in the end, would I recommend the K70? Absolutely 100% You simply cannot go wrong with owning this camera.......Its 24 MP sensor is crazy good......it takes wonderful pictures, and really has a wow factor with the colors and saturation that it renders, as long as the camera is shooting in RAW mode. (Which is 14 Bit BTW!) JPEGs are good, but the RAW pictures are incredibly detailed. If you have even a little photography skill, this camera will do wonders for you. I have owned over 10 Pentax cameras, and every one of them has been great for me over the years, except for the K50! I had a film era K1000 body, and even then, I thought it took more pleasing pictures than the Minoltas, and Canons that I have owned in the film era, and even after a 30 year journey of photography personally, Pentax still offers that value that stands out from the other brands. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - šŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** ā€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - šŸŒ **Shop Globally** ā€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - šŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** ā€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - šŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** ā€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - šŸ”’ **Secure Payments** ā€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ā­ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** ā€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/289180267-pentax-k-70-weather-sealed-dslr-camera-with-18-135mm](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/289180267-pentax-k-70-weather-sealed-dslr-camera-with-18-135mm) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-06-20*
