| Description | 22 May of 2006 Asahi Pentax announced the K100D and the K110D. These two camera's are the same, the only difference is that the K100D has Shake Reduction and the K110D not. The SR mechanism incorporated in the K100D is designed to minimize camera shake by oscillating the CCD image sensor vertically and horizontally at high speed using magnetic force, while adjusting the speed of oscillation in proportion to the amount of camera shake detected by a built-in sensor. As a result, it does not require special anti-shake lenses, and can be used with almost all existing PENTAX interchangeable lenses.* |
