Pentax X-5

Zitat: Gehäuseform und Design der X-5 ähneln den Spiegelreflexkameras von Pentax. Dank großem Griff lässt sich die Kamera also sicher in der Hand halten. Der Bildstabilisator der X-5 bewegt nicht die Objektiv-Linsen, sondern den Sensor. Diese Lösung schwächelt im Weitwinkelbereich, dort gewinnt der Fotograf nur etwa eine Blendenstufe.

Zitat: Pro: + Impressive 26x optical zoom lens delivers crisp images, even when at full tele + Comfortable, ergonomic camera build feels higher-end than its low price point suggests + Lots of effective, automated features make picture-taking a fun experience for the beginner. Contra: - DSLR-style camera body might attract enthusiasts who will be disappointed in the X-5´ - s consumer focus - Frustratingly slow to use all around - AA batteries can fall out when retrieving the SD card - Some design quirks are off-putting. The Pentax X-5 is a versatile, all-in-one superzoom camera with an impressive 26x optical zoom, offering 22-580mm equivalent range. It may look a lot like a shrunken version of the Pentax K-30, and it may bear a model name similar to Pentax´s popular K-5, but it´s definitely no DSLR. And it´s not meant to perform like one. So while its portable but well-appointed design suggests the X-5 is aimed at more advanced users, it´s really built for novice photographers who might be headed on a family vacation and want a camera with long reach. Images with good lighting are surprisingly crisp, even at full tele, but the camera doesn´t fare as well in low lighting and it´s frustratingly slow to use. Despite those hiccups, the X-5 remains one of the best entry-level superzoom cameras we´ve tested.

Zitat: Bildqualität und Ausstattung der X-5 sind gut, Autofokus und Serienbildmodus zu langsam. Das Preis/Leistungsverhältnis stimmt aber: Preistipp!
