New Pentax K100D and K110D SLR Cameras

May 23 2006, 1:58am CDT | by Luigi Lugmayr

Pentax introduces the K110D and K100D SLR cameras.

The new entry-level DSLR camera K100D from Pentax features a 6.1MP resolution and a new Shake Reduction technology.
The difference between the K100D and K110D is that the K110D does not have the Shake Reduction.
The SR mechanism is designed to minimize camera shake by oscillating the CCD image sensor vertically and horizontally at high speed using magnetic force, while adjusting the speed of oscillation in proportion to the amount of camera shake detected by a built-in sensor. As a result, the system does not require special anti-shake lenses and can be used with almost all existing PENTAX interchangeable lenses.
The PENTAX K100D will ship along with the smc 18-55mm lens in July 2006 for $699.95 US, while the PENTAX K110D will ship along with the smc 18-55mm lens in August 2006 for $599.95 US.
