La K3 ataviada para grabar video.
Con cientos de miles de millones de unidades de tiempo de retraso (iba a poner eones, pero hubiera sido un poco exagerado) respecto a otras WEB’s, hoy el bueno de Steve’s Digicams publica su análisis a fondo de la Pentax K3.
Como no es una maquinita de la que se haya hablado mucho, a pesar del retraso, os lo cuento y os pongo como de costumbre para esta WEB el resumen de las características y los «pros» y «contras» del análisis.
