This a complete kit consisting of the Pentax 645D medium format camera and the Pentax-D 55mm f/2.8 SDM AW lens (along with battery, charger, etc.)
The Pentax 645D is based around a 40MP medium format (44×33mm) CCD sensor. It provides a top resolution of 7264×5440 pixels, which is ideal for ultra-high resolution imaging, exceptionally large printing applications, and outstanding cropping flexibility. It has a rigid aluminum diecast chassis covered in magnesium alloy for a heavy duty, but light-weight body. It’s fully weather sealed and coldproof for shooting in any environment. It has a 77 segment metering system and 11-point AF system for reliable, accurate shooting. With an ISO range of 200-1000 (expandable to 100 and 1600) and highly flexible white balance options, shooting in less-than-ideal conditions are easily achieved.
The all-glass, trapezoid pentaprism viewfinder offers a 98% FOV viewing angle for accurate framing applications. Dual SD/SDHC memory card slots allow for various recording methods (8-bit JPG or 14-bit RAW-Pentax PEF or Adobe DNG). Other features include a 3" 921K rear LCD for reviewing images, mirror lockup and dampening features, multiple JPG processing options and in-camera HDR. It shoots at 1.1fps at full resolution and has in-camera lens correction that compensates for aberrations and distortion. All of this in a body that is not too much bigger than a pro-DSLR (6.1 × 4.6 × 4.7″ 49 oz body only).
The 55mm f2.8 lens (equivalent to a 43mm full-frame SLR lens) has a 9-bladed circular diaphragm for nice blurring of the -out-of-focus highlights, and provides excellent image quality.
Note: Our camera has V1.02 firmware which makes it compatible with SDXC memory cards.
The Pentax 645D has crop factor of 0.78×. This means any compatibile lens you mount to this camera, you will multiply the given focal length by 0.78 to calculate the 35mm-equivalent focal length.
