Pentax lüftet heute den Schleier etwas weiter vom zukünftigen APS-C-Spitzenmodell. K-3 Mark III wird sie heißen, detaillierte technische Details gibt es ebenfalls. Auf den Markt kommen soll die K-3 Mark III Ende Februar 2021, einen Preis nennt Pentax noch nicht.
Eigentlich wollte Pentax sein zukünftigen APS-C-Spitzenmodell Ende dieses Jahres herausbringen. Daraus wird nun nichts, aber zur CP+ Ende Februar 2021 soll es nun soweit sein. Als weiteren Vorgeschmack gibt’s heute wenigstens den Modellnamen: K-3 Mark III.
Außerdem veröffentlicht Pentax heute detaillierte technische Informationen zur K-3 Mark III. Demnach wird die klassische DSLR ein neues AF-System mit 101 Sensoren bekommen, Serienaufnahmen mit bis zu 12 Bilder/Sekunde schaffen und mit zwei Kartenspeicherplätzen ausgestattet sein.

Schön, dass Pentax weiter gepflegt wird. Klingt nach einem runden Angebot.
Zitat Shinobu Takahashi, President of RICOH IMAGING:
"We expect to set its market price around the upper-200.000-yen range."

Wenn bei der neuen Pentax doch nur der rückseitige Bildschirm in irgendeiner Form beweglich wäre!
Eine Nikon D780 für rund 2000 EUR scheint mir deutlich interessanter, wenn man weiterhin die Vorteile eines optischen Suchersystems in einer halbwegs modernen Kamera-Iteration nutzen möchte.
Na, das ist doch mal ein Vergleich. Eine Kamera heranzuziehen, deren Listenpreis (2436,00 €) um fast 50% höher liegt. Warten wir einmal den "Straßenverkaufspreis" der Pentax ab.
Generell bin ich mit einer Kleinbild- und einer APS-C-Kamera unterwegs, um die Vorteile beider Systeme zu nutzen. Die Nikon würde mir im langen Telebereich nicht annähernd die Auflösung bieten, die die neue K-3 III bietet.
Das fehlende Klappdisplay mag für manche ärgerlich sein. Ich vermisse es weniger. Nehme lieber einen Winkelsucher.
200.000 YEN wären aktuell rund 1630 EUR.
"… upper-200.000-yen range." lässt mich allerdings eine UVP über 1630 EUR vermuten.
Für eine FF-Nikon D780 liegen die Straßenpreise namhafter Online-Händler derzeit bei rund 1950 EUR, für eine APS-C-Nikon D500 bei rund 1470 EUR und für eine Canon 90D bei 1220 EUR.
Die neue Pentax K-3 Mark III bietet:
+ Integrierten Bild-/Sensorstabilisator (IBIS)
+ Erweiterte Wetterfestigkeit bis -10°C
+ DNG-Dateiformat in Kamera
– Keine wechselbaren Sucherscheiben (dito Nikon D780 und D500; im Gegensatz zur Pentax KP)
– Kein beweglicher Monitor
– Kein AF-Joystick
– Kein integrierter Blitz (dito Nikon D780 und D500)
– Kein 4K60p (dito Nikon D780 und D500)
– Vergleichsweise mäßige Akkulaufzeit mit CIPA 800 Bilder
Aktuell würde ich für eine neue Pentax K-3 Mark III maximal 1500 EUR ausgeben wollen vorausgesetzt das neu entwickelte AF-System überzeugt tatsächlich vollumfänglich (Phasen und Live-View)!
Andernfalls maximal 1200 EUR!
My two cents.
Für wen entwickelt Ricoh diese neue Pentax?
Einen Umstieg auf Pentax wird man mit einer solchen geringen Weiterentwicklung kaum auslösen.
Und wer eine K-70,KP oder eine ältere K-3/K-3II sein Eigen nennt, muss für einen Umstieg schon ein sehr großer Fanboy der Marke Pentax sein. Eine deutliche Verbesserung der Bildqualität gegenüber der K-70 steht nicht zu erwarten.
Wenn es Pentax nicht schnell gelingt, Zeichen zu setzen mit überzeugenden Produktinnovationen dann wars das wohl bald.
Die weit zu hoch gegriffene Preissetzung tut ein Übriges.
Preise oberhalb der Einsteiger Vollformatkameras von Nikon (D-750/D-610) und Sony (A7-A7II) aufzurufen und auch teurer als Fujis X-Modelle der 3. Generation (X-T3/X-T30) zu sein, ist ganz sicher ein schlechter Plan. So preist man sich aus dem Markt.
Es ist schade um Pentax. Erst kein Systemkamera-Modell entwickeln, dann überteuerte Festbrennweiten (50 und 85 mm) auf den Markt bringen und jetzt eine lauwarme Modellpflege zu einem absoluten Premium-Preis.
