VIEWFINDER
The viewfinder provides 0.95x
enlargement of the scene and
shows precisely the shot that
will be stored into memory. It
features an integrated diopter
control.
LCD DISPLAY
The upper display can be illuminated to give an
overview of important settings such as shutter
speed, aperture, ISO value, exposure mode of
operation, battery life indication, available
memory, exposures remaining and exposure
compensation.
4-WAY CONTROLLER
Just as you need a mouse to
navigate your way around a
computer, with the K10D you
use a 4-Way Controller. The
controller is also used to select
AF functions.

BATTERY GRIP D-BG2
The PENTAX battery grip offers the necessary power to ensure an optimal
performance of the K10D camera while it’s in continuous use. The grip
uses the D-Li50 Li-Ion battery (sold separately). The battery grip features
an additional shutter release, adjusting dial for selecting aperture or shut-
ter speed and other functional controls – particularly practical if shooting
vertically. With proven PENTAX ergonomics the camera fits reliably and
comfortably in the hand. The battery compartment provides storage
space for a memory card and remote control next to the batteries.
REPLACEMENT BATTERY D-Li50
Interchangeable power: with a pre-charged spare battery you’ll never
have to stop shooting.
REMOTE CONTROL F
Shutter release without blur: With the infrared remote control you operate
the shutter from in front of or behind the camera up to 5 metres away.
VIEWFINDER LOUPE O-ME53
With the Viewfinder Loupe attached the finest details will grab your
attention. The 1.2x magnification facilitates the assessment of fine
details more accurately.
OPTIONAL FOCUSING SCREENS LL80 AND LI80
PENTAX offers two optional focusing screens for the K10D to replace the
standard screen. The AF Divided Matte screen combines the focus area
brackets with a grid to assure proper composition. The AF Scale Matte
screen provides a scale to verify subject placement for critical applications.
