Here we are comparing two cameras with different body types: Canon R7, which was introduced in May 2022 is a Advanced Mirrorless camera with a 33.0MP APS-C sensor whereas Pentax K-1, which was introduced in February 2016 is a Advanced DSLR camera with a 36.0MP Full frame sensor. As you can see, K-1 is 6 years older than R7. Let's see if this age difference between two cameras makes a big difference.
Despite some fundamental differences of these two body types, Mirrorless cameras are becoming serious alternatives to DSLR cameras thanks to their size/weight advantages and recent improvements in their focus speeds , which makes this comparison even more interesting. Fortunately, you can't go wrong with any of these cameras as we rank them amongst Top 10 cameras in their classes. Canon R7 is ranked
#9 out of 66 Advanced Mirrorless cameras with an overall score of 80 whereas Pentax K-1 is ranked
#4 out of 94 Advanced DSLR cameras with an overall score of 81.
Here is a brief look at the main features of the Canon R7 and Pentax K-1 before getting into our more detailed comparison.
Let's read on in the following sections in order to better understand in detail how the Canon R7 and Pentax K-1 compare and hopefully end up with enough arguments to decide which one is better for you.
