Pentax 645Z DSLR Camera
Digital Camera Description
The Pentax 645Z is a Semi-Professional DSLR with a 654D sensor and a Pentax 645 lens mount. Its 51 Megapixels CMOS sensor offers an ISO 100-204800 sensitivity range which is expandable to ISO 100-204800. This makes it possible to shoot hand-held in very low-light. With 51 MP of resolution, sharp prints are possible up to 35" x 26" at 240 DPI.
This camera features a mechanic shutter that can expose for 1/4000 to 30s. Bulb exposures of an unspecified duration are possible with this camera. With a fastest shutter-speed of 1/4000, fast action can easily be frozen. Night photography is possible using this digital camera due to its long exposure capability. This camera model offers Full Manual Controls.
The Pentax 645Z features a 27-point Phase-Detect AF system. Autofocus can continuously adjust according to subject distance. A Real-Time Autofocus Tracking System allows focus to follow a moving subject within the frame. Manual Focus is also available.
Dual controls-dials offer direct access to most exposure parameters which makes this digital camera suitable for advanced photographers. The weatherproof construction of this digital camera protects it against adverse weather, dust and moisture. This particular model is also freezeproof down to -10C. Framing on the Pentax 645Z is performed via an extra large reflex optical viewfinder with 0.62X magnification and 98% coverage. This magnification is equivalent to 0.76X on a Full-Frame camera.
