The PENTAX K2000’s compact design and ease-of-use make it the perfect choice
for anyone looking to make the transition to digital SLR photography. One
of the smallest DSLR cameras on the market, the K2000’s ergonomic design
makes for easy one-handed operation. It also features a wide range of advanced
technologies, including a sophisticated Shake Reduction system and the
PENTAX-developed Auto Picture mode. Powerful learning tools like a built-in
function guide and a dedicated
Help Button
means that in addition to producing
better prints, the K2000 will also help make you a better photographer.
High resolution 10.2 megapixel CCD
sensor
produces crisp, high resolution images.
It lets you see the smallest details, crop
to perfect your composition, and print
enlargements without taking up all the free
space on your hard drive or memory card.
Large 2.7 inch LCD screen
is the perfect blend
of size and resolution for ideal picture review.
The screen’s brightness is adjustable for
different lighting conditions, and the screen is
viewable from a wide angle – up to 170º –
so everyone in the group can gather around
to review your images.
Dedicated, reprogrammable Help Button
is
like having a built-in, always at the ready
user’s guide. It explains the current camera
function and setting, guiding you to learn
more about photography. It’s the ideal tool
for helping to ease the transition from
point-and-shoot to DSLR photography.
Auto Picture
mode
analyzes what you’re
taking a picture of, then automatically sets the
proper shooting mode. Don’t worry if your
image is an action shot, portrait, landscape,
macro shot, or a night scene. Simply set it to
Auto Picture and start shooting. As you learn
more about photography, you can take more
control and set the picture modes yourself.
Up to 3.5 frames per second capture rate
means
the K2000 is able to capture fast-moving action.
Whether you use it at a fast-paced sporting
event or for chasing a speeding toddler, you’ll
be better able to get the perfect shot.

PENTAX Shake Reduction
system helps
deliver sharp, blur-free images. Utilizing
a free-floating image sensor, the K2000
compensates for the tiny movements your
hand makes when taking a picture. Shutter
speeds can be 2.5 to 4 stops lower and still
capture sharp images. It
is particularly helpful in
low light situations, such as when shooting
indoors without a flash, or outdoors at dawn,
dusk or nighttime. And it works with every
PENTAX SLR lens ever manufactured.
