Pros & Cons
Pros
Camera feels rugged and durable. The camera has a chunky & quality feel.
The controls are so intuitive and the ergonomics means that i can change the settings without having to look at what * i'm pressing. This camera is also very customizable, coming in more than 30 different color combinations and has programmable *.
Even if you're already familiar with dslr caliber photography, i think you'll find the k-50 holds its own admirably. Built in flash is adequate but a bit finicky to tune just right.
Cons
I am fairly certain that i am experiencing a known manufacturer defect -- which is the aperture block failure. Just completely disappointed in this brand.
Highlights
Quality
Add some well-placed lighting, and you've got a method for creating content.
I use this little camera almost daily as i'm a media photographer
The photo quality is superb on the k-50.
Auto focus in photo mode, leave the lens alone, and film your video.
Competitiveness
Since 2016 i've purchased several of these cameras and they have out performed the other more expensive brands named cameras.
