Pentax K110D (Body Only)
Editor's Review
Like the K100D, the K110D is meant as an entry-level digital SLR, a slightly more affordable version than its counterpart, though you may have to sacrifice a little. Basically, it's the same camera. It has the same 2.5 inch LCD monitor, a light, compact body design, and strong 6.1 megapixel sensor. The major difference is that the K110D lacks image stabilization and is slightly lighter than the K100D. If you're confident in the steadiness of your hands, the K110D will save you about $100, but if you're a jittery shooter and want that extra protection from blur and distortion, take a look at the other model before settling.
Note: this model does not come standard with a lens. It is a "Body Only" model. For a K110D with a lens, click here.

My Pentax (Heather — 12/06/2010)
Personally, I own the Pentax K110D and I absolutely love it. I am currently going to school for Professional Photography and I use my Pentax at school, whereas the rest of the students use either Nikon or Canon. Some of the pictures that I have taken have honestly been better than some of the pictures that they've taken. I've even had a friend of mine that is a professional photographer tell me that she likes my camera better than her own.

Compatible lenses fo K110D (robertcarter — 07/06/2008)
Hi. I owned an old ME Super years ago with lots of lenses. Can you tell me if these will fit a K110D. Thank you Bob
reply to this comment
Brenda Paro (07/10/2008)
If your old camera was the straight ME Super (not the ME F or anything), then it used the Pentax K Bayonet mount. I'm assuming those are the lenses you have. The K110D uses the Pentax KAF2 mount, which is compatible with the K Bayonet, but with restrictions.
In more detail, "restrictions" means that the lenses will fit onto the camera, and they'll work fine. But the features will be limited depending on which ones are supported by both the lens and the camera. For example, if your lens supports Automatic aperture (if the lens has an A setting), then the camera's auto exposure modes will work with the lens. If the lens supports auto focus, then auto focus will work with the camera. Etc.
The main thing is, the lenses will fit, but full capability may or may not be there depending on the features that the lens and camera body share. Hope that helps!

What lenses are compatible with the Pentax K110D? (jonhartz — 08/22/2007)
reply to this comment
sathiyarr (08/22/2007)
The K110D is compatible with all existing PENTAX interchangeable lenses — both old and new... Compatible with any Pentax lens, the Pentax K110D is an entry-level digital SLR. But the best seller with this is 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 Lens.
Compatibility with existing PENTAX interchangeable lenses
The K110D is compatible with all existing PENTAX interchangeable lenses — both old and new.** This compatibility lets the photographer use various lenses for the same subject, or select the most appropriate lens for a given situation, assuring the top visual creativity available only through SLR photography.
** Lenses compatible with the K110D are: K-, KA-, KAF- and KAF2-mount lenses; screw-mount lenses (with an adapter); 645-system lenses (with an adapter); and 67-system lenses (with an adapter). Certain lenses may lose part of their functions.

I have 2 lenses for my old Pentax ZX-50- Kaf bayonet types. Can I continue to use them with a K110D? Larry (Larry1 — 08/11/2007)
Will the lenses from my Pentax ZX-50 (bayonet-type) work with a new K110 D. One is a wide-angle and the other the main 35-80mm that came with the original camera-- will autofocus still function? any compromises I should be aware of?

they WILL work, and more than fine...
Pentax K series are claimed to be compatible with every lens made by Pentax in history. Some, may need an adaptor... but they will work.
Much more... I'm using a rikkenon lens on the Pentax K10 D... an 50 mm f/2. It's really compative....

Pentax K110D is the entry level digital SLR w/o shake reduction feature. K100D is the one having shake reduction feature. All K mount lenses will work with K100D/K110D. All screw mount lenses will need an adapter. Some lenses may loose some of their features when coupled to digital camera. Hope this clarifies your querry.

It may exist an adaptor to fit nikon, but no way it would be fast. Think that you should take out the lens, take out the adaptor, and then put it on the Nikon... or reverse for the Pentax. Buy another nikon so you won't have that problem...

You would be pleased to know that somebody has already found out the answer to your question in another review and here's an extract :
" That's right, Pentax claims the two new SLRs will work with "any Pentax lens ever produced." That includes their old K1000 35mm K-Mount and the even older M42 x 1mm screw mount lenses (which were made by many companies: Zeiss, Leica, Mamiya, Olympus, etc.), plus the Pentax 645 and 67 medium format lenses: all can be attached via special adapters.

I have two Tamron zoom lenses with adapters to fit my Pentax ME Super ,can I use them with my Pentax K110D? (pmwesty63 — 01/27/2007)
Tamron lens 35-70zoom with ADAPTALL 2 mount, 17A No.2008148 fits perfectly and can be focused manually but shutter will not operate. The lens which came with the K110D works perfectly on the old ME Super. Am I doing something wrong or do I need a different adapter ring or is it just not compatible?

Andrew Skinner (01/27/2007)
Peter,
The ME Super has a K mount while the K110D ( digitalcamera-hq.com/digita... ) has a KAF mount. This might be where you're running into the problem. A different adapter might be needed. Some lenses work with both the K and KAF mounts while others do not.

Hi Sheila,
According to a user in this message board thread ( pentaxforums.com/forums/pen... ), the AF400FTZ will not work with the K110D, as it requires a P-TTL flash, while the 400FTZ is TTL only.
Sorry, and hope this helps.

I have a 5 mp, is it really worth going to a 10 mp? (sudy — 01/01/2007)
I have heard that anything over 5 mp is a waste.
reply to this comment
Andrew Skinner (01/01/2007)
Sudy,
5 mp is a great resolution level. You will see a difference in going to 10 though. I have a 3.2, a 5 and an 8 that all give me great results. I see a big advantage of the higher resolution cameras is the ability to crop your photos and still maintain resolution when blowing photos up or printing them. This gives more freedom in your photos to do what you want with them later. Good luck and happy shooting.

Alan Schamber (02/02/2007)
Hey! I've got a better answer! I want those points!!! ok... I'll just answer because I wanna help you.
Have you ever seen that they say that more pixels is better? Have you ever compared pictures of cameras that are almost the same, but one with 5 and the other one with 7... or 10 and 8? Which one makes better pictures? Almost anyone will answer that it's the 10 mp one. And most of them... are wrong.
The pictures are created in the sensor of the image. It's well known that one of the things that determinates the image quality, is how much light goes to each pixel... right? Well... if you've got a 10 mp with an 1/1,8" ( 7.18 x 5.32 mm) sensor, the pixel is smaller than if you've got to make 8 mp (divide the area of the sensor for the quantity of pixels). That means that it will recieve less light... what means worse image quality. Do you need to make a 6 x 4 foots image? Well... if you don't, just go for a 6 mp, 7... or just stay with the 5 mp.
Hope this helps you...
Alan.

Brenda,
I suppose we'd go from $300 to maybe $600. We'd be wanting to take still shots immediately. After taking the senior pictures it would be given to our daughter who is entering college for general use. She has taken some photography classes in HS and may explore photography some more in college.

Brenda Paro (11/05/2006)
Hi Jeff,
Thanks for the details. Since your daughter knows some about photography and wants to learn more I'd definitely lean towards something with optional Manual controls (so she can play with the settings and learn how they work, but still put the camera on auto when she wants to). Your price range is pretty widespread, so I'll give you a few ideas from each area and you can check out the details on them:
Canon Powershot A640 ( digitalcamera-hq.com/digita... )- I love the Powershots because they take great photos in low light as well as in bright sun... very rich, pure colors. This one has auto and manual exposure options and a nice 4x zoom. All-around stable and dependable.
Kodak Easyshare P712 ( digitalcamera-hq.com/digita... )- another nice all-around camera; super user-friendly. Nice big zoom.
Most of those are in the same 300-ish price range. If you're looking to spend more than that, you can possibly look into a digital SLR. Those are the more advanced cameras that take multiple lenses and have more complicated instructions and functions. While they are great for photo students, it is also easier to take a bad picture with a DSLR than it is with a point and shoot. You really do need to learn how to use them, and that's a committment I'm not sure if your daughter is looking for or not... and it may also mean buying separate lenses since the ones that come with DSLRs aren't always the greatest. If that's a route you're interested in, the Canon EOS 30D ( digitalcamera-hq.com/digita... ) is my favorite.
Hope that helps somewhat. Let me know if you need further help!

Newbie2dsl (12/28/2006)
Since your daughters are probably going off to college. Perhaps you may want to look at something very portable. The best thing to do about senior pics is not to wait until that last minute. If they are in a regular school then the school will have some requirements for their yearbooks to have the pic submitted. Usually must have shot of just face, etc. and usually can even require dress regulations. Our school also requires a black and white for the paper. They offer pics taken at the school and then you can look at them and if you don't like them you pay nothing. (Just in case all goes bad) But hopefully you won't have any problems. Remember - try to catch them doing more natural things that you or they want to remember. You can always add in some items that have meaning, like a certain stuffed animal, necklace, or scenic spot.

I'll add several more SLRs to the mix, since I think only the 30D has come up so far:
Nikon D40 ( digitalcamera-hq.com/digita... ) -- a cool new Nikon oriented toward people learning photography, Canon Rebel 400D ( digitalcamera-hq.com/digita... ) -- the cheaper cousin of the 30D Brenda recommended (a totally great camera by all accounts), the Pentax K110D ( digitalcamera-hq.com/digita... ) or Sony a100 ( digitalcamera-hq.com/digita... ) -- both have image stabilization built in so you can buy much less expensive lenses. But all of these are real SLR cameras: fast, high quality and good for real photography.

Alan Schamber (02/01/2007)
Hi Jeff... I'll give you some advice. First of all, you should know the diferences between a DSRL and a point & shoot (even with manual controls). There are two types of customers... the ones who want a small and cool device, take nice pics, and just have fun and the ones who don't care if the camera is big, if the lenses are big too, but they care a lot about response and image quality. Of course, these last ones, are more expensive... but you are getting much more from each buck you spend. The tecnical differences are: a much bigger sensor (like 7 or 8 times) what makes more light pass to each pixel, and make more vivid images; image procesors, that are the ones which convert the image in digital information (let's say that the worst SRL is at least better than the best point & shoot); response (SRL are on in 0,2 secs... don't expect that from a point & shoot). But, the SRL are not that comfortable... with almost any of them, you cannot take pics with the LCD, and are in some cases up to 6 or 7 bigger cameras.
I will recomend you cameras from $400, and up to $700... despite you said $600. Why? Because SRL prices start at $500... so you don't have too many of them by that price. The average, is around $800 and $1500.
Recomended Point & Shoot:
* Canon Powershot G7
* Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ5
* Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ1
* Ricoh Caplio R5
* Samsung NV7 OPS
* Samsung S850
This ones, are point & shoot cameras... but they are kind of small. You also have those with ultra versatile lenses, but much bigger. Some of the bests are:
* Samsung Pro815 (with 15x lenses, and a decent sensor)
* Panasonic FZ30 (you also have the FZ50, but you should know that there's almost any difference between 8 and 10 mp, than the $100 extra bucks) I would recomend THIS ONE!
* Kodak P880
* FujiFilm FinePix IS-1
SRL's I recomend for the price:
* Pentax K100 (or K110... the difference is the image stabilization)
* Nikon D40
* Canon Rebel XT EOS 350 D
To decide between these three, you should first know some things about them:
1º Pentax K100 was the surprise in the last photography event of 2006. It has even better picture quality than the Nikon D50, and it has shift sensor image stabilization.
2º The Nikon D40 is the last release of Nikon, and it's made to compete with the Pentax. The image quality is slightly better (let's say that the throne was for the Nikon D50, until the Pentax K100 was lounched to the market, and they just released the Nikon D40 that has some better end details, but there are almost no differences). BUT! this camera doesn't have a built in autofocus... so you have to buy every lens with it's own autofocus system, which makes them more expensive. Much more... if you want image stabilization... you will have to buy much more expensive lenses, when the K100 comes with it.
3º There's no difference between 6 and 8 mp. But much more... this is the most expensive of the three, and Canon is well known for bad quality kit lenses... so you will have to buy extra lenses. This one doesn't come with image stabilization neither.
My opinion: buy the K100 camera body, and then look for lenses around 120 and 200 bucks. Sigma is a very good brand for the price you pay them. Look for versatility, something like 18-90 mm, or 28-120... or even more. I've done that.
Hope this helps you to find the best camera for you and your daughter, and I expect you to post in the future what you bought, and how pleased you are.
Alan.

what is the best digital camera for zoom options? (Dewayne Darby — 09/28/2006)
My daughter wants a digital camera for Christmas and has enjoyed the zoom lenses on her Pentax SLR so I am trying to go digital with as many zoom options as reasonable pricing will allow.
reply to this comment
camera? (09/28/2006)
If you're looking for another Pentax SLR, the Pentax K100D ( digitalcamera-hq.com/digita... ) and Pentax K110D ( digitalcamera-hq.com/digita... ) are really good options.
If you're looking for a non-SLR, I suggest you check out our Extended Zoom ( digitalcamera-hq.com/digita... ) section. I personally like the Panasonic FZ50 ( digitalcamera-hq.com/digita... ).

Well, if she already have a Pentax SLR, I will assume she have lenses as well,
Getting Pentax Digital SLR would be good idea. since all the pentax fit lens (the old M42 mount lens with an adapter) will fit on a Pentax Digital SLR. and for the price no one else can beat.
if you don't need to Shake Reduction function, go with the K110D,
if you want it, then go with the K100D, or money is not a problem, go with the K10D.
also check out this rebate offer
pentaximaging.com/files/scm... you want to change back to regular Digital Camera- check out the Canon Powershot line.and the Panasonic Lumix line
High-end digital Cameras you can Check out the Fuji-finepix S9000( it's around the same price range as the Pentax K110d)
or this Sony line sonystyle.com/is-bin/INTERS... all really good Digital cameras

If you want to go on with Pentax... DO IT! buy the K100 D (I wouldn't say the K10 D because it's much more expensive, and the last reviews are not that positive).
But if you are just asking about zooms, the best one is in the Samsung Pro815 with a 15x zoom.
The Panasoni FZ30 is a really good one... (don't buy the FZ50... the only difference between a 10 and a 8 mp, is the $100).
If you want a profesional lens, but in a not SRL camera... ask for the Leica V-LUX 1.
Don't even ask for the Sony's or Canon's. Ask for the Nikon large zoom cameras, but the design is not that beautiful.
I will say it again... aim for continuing with Pentax. I own a K100, and I couldn't be more pleased (well... maybe with the Leica M8... but there's a little diference... almost anything... $4000 bucks). If not, you would have to buy again lenses or give up image quality for versatility and price.
Hope this helps you,
Alan.

- 5.0 out of 5
Good entry level SLR
(Guy Nehrenz — 12/20/2007)
I purchased the 110D 1 year ago and have found it to be an excellent camera for hobbyists. It is very well built and has features of more expensive cameras. I have also purchased the K10D for semi-professional work. Both are excellent cameras. If you are looking for an excellent entry level (only because of megapixels) look no further. Excellent camera.
