Pentax K10D Landscape Photography Detailed Analysis
Large APS-C (23.5 x 15.7 mm) sensor
Large sensor in Pentax K10D ensures a good low light image quality compared to smaller sensors, and it also provides higher pixel quality compared to smaller sensors.
Environmental Sealings
Landscape photographs are taken outdoors and you should be prepared for all kind of weather conditions.
No Live-view
Making fine focus adjustments using live view is more precise than using a viewfinder.
Very Low Resolution Sensor: 10.0MP
Landscapes photography is where you need the maximum resolution. Unfortunately Pentax K10D's 10.0MP sensor doesn't deliver much and limit you with smaller prints and less fine details.
