Pentax K-3 II Camera Brings GPS With Rugged Design

Ricoh has introduced an update to the Pentax K-3, and most aptly it is called the Pentax K-3 II. There are some improvements that come along with it, including the addition of GPS to complement its rugged design. The shake-reduction technology has been improved, there’s integrated Astrotracer, and high-speed auto-focus, among other things. The camera won’t be launching until some time next month (a specific date wasn’t provided), and it’ll be priced at $1,099.95 USD when it does.

The Pentax K-3 II features a 24.35-megapixel resolution, a 4.5EV stop shake-reduction system, and 27-point auto focus. The high-speed auto focus algorithm is all new, as well as the inclusion of GPS. The camera also includes a gyro sensor, automatic horizon correction, and panning detection. The camera is able to shoot at speeds up to 8.3 frames per second.
