The new model’s design is based on the PENTAX K-3 Mark III - the flagship model of PENTAX’s APS-C-format series that integrates remarkable imaging performance and a host of advanced features in a compact, durable body - while adding a new, monochrome-specific image sensor. The PENTAX K-3 Mark III standard features -ī ring more excitement to the photographic process. Since a monochrome-specific image sensor can faithfully reflect the brightness data obtained by each pixel in the image - without the interpolation process - the photographer can create extra-fine monochromatic expression, in an image high in resolution and rich in gradation. To compose a monochrome image, color sensors must convert color data into monochromatic data by interpolating the obtained color data while using adjacent areas of the image field as a reference. Typical color image sensors are designed to receive light passing through red (R), green (G) and blue (B) color filters, so each pixel detects only one color data component. The obtained data is then directly converted to compose an image. By designing the camera solely for the purpose of monochrome photography, each pixel detects brightness data of the light coming through the lens. This means that the photographer can create images that are more impressive and persuasive.įor users who want to master monochrome photography, the PENTAX K-3 Mark III Monochrome features an image sensor specifically designed to capture monochrome images only. Without color data, monochrome can more clearly depict the form and texture of a subject using light, shadow and the in-between gradations. Monochrome (or black-and-white) photography is the origin of photographic expression.
