>>2638826Look at the K-50 or the K-S2, same price, same sensor (K-S2) but a lot more of a camera fro the money.
Weather sealing, rugged magnesium alloy shell and pentaprism viewfinder just to name a few.
By the way what you should NOT base your choice on:
- Megapixels. Anything above 10-12MP is good. The best FF for low light is actually 12MP (Sony A7s)
- Zoom. Lens are interchangeable and the best performance are without zoom, called primes. Avoid lenses that have large zoom range.
Something to add to this last one, focal lengths. Standard focal length is the closes to the naked human eyesight, it is at 50mm on FF eqivalent. On APS-C sensors the crop factor is 1.6x so to get the equivalent focal length you have to multiply your focal length by 1.6. This means a 35mm on a crop DSLR is about 50mm equivalent. This is your standard. Lower than this is wide, higher is telephoto. Your typical kit lens is 18-55mm meaning a 24mm eq to 85mm eq going from wide field (landscape, architecture) to short tele (typical portrait focal length). You can do a lot with it. Back to the zoom range, avoid any lens that goes from wide to long tele, like 18mm-200mm or further. These are shit on both ends and only perform in a narrow range in the middle. You only waste money on them. If you want something for reach, go for the kit telezooms first, like 50-200mm or 55-300mm.
