Designed primarily for entry level digital SLR photographers, Pentax K-m offers simplified, user-friendly operation, and an easy-to-maneuver compact, lightweight body. The Pentax K-m combines a large, high-performance CCD image sensor (23.5mm by 15.7mm) with the sophisticated Prime (Pentax Real Image Engine) as its imaging engine.
