When Pentax announced the K10D back in 2006, serious amateurs and professionals quickly started paying attention. The K10D was more rugged and feature-packed than any Pentax digital SLR before it. In 2008, the company decided to update their line with the Pentax K20D, featuring a stabilized 14.6 megapixel CMOS image sensor, high quality image processing, dust- and weather-proof seals, 11-point AF, and more custom features than any photographer would need.
If you're in the market for a Canon EOS 40D or a Nikon D300, pay close attention. The Pentax K20D might just be the best choice you can make.
FEATURES OVERVIEW
Overall, the features and specs of the K20D are remarkably similar to the features and specs of the K10D. The most notable changes include the 14.6 megapixel CMOS image sensor which, in theory, produces a far superior signal-to-noise ratio over the lower-resolution CCD image sensors in Pentax's older cameras. In terms of continuous shooting performance, the K20D has the same 3 frames per second burst performance at maximum resolution found on its predecessor. Unfortunately, the K20D can no longer capture unlimited JPEGs at this speed and stops after 38 exposures. If you need to take continuous photos until the memory card is full, you will need to set the camera to capture burst images at a maximum speed of 2.3 frames per second.
