The Pentax K100D and similar Pentax K110D are 6 megapixel digital single-lens reflex cameras launched in the US on the 22/5/06. The K100D has for maximum resolution 3008 x 2008. It can also be set at a lower resolution of 2400 x 1600, 1536 x 1024. The minimum shutter speed (min. exposition to light) on the K100D is 30 seconds and the maximum shutter is 1/4000 seconds.
The K100D and K110D were announced in May 2006. The K110D has exactly the same features as the K100D except that it doesn't feature the built-in shake reduction by CCD-shift.
[edit] Technology and construction
It combines a 6 effective megapixel CCD sensor, coupled with an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and a shake reduction system.
