Camera We Used - Pentax K-X

















The camera we used was the Pentax K-X, a 12.4 megapixel digital single-lens reflex camera. 
The built in Shake Reduction function automatically turns off in the following situations.
  • Self-Timer
  • Remote control shooting
  • Bulb shooting
  • HDR Capture

The camera is capable of recording HD Video files which made it quite popular for some independent filmmakers. The camera is using the "DV codec alike" MJPEG codec, which is a very soft compression that creates relatively huge video files but on the other hand allows editing of this video files even on older editing systems with less CPU power. The advantage of this compression method is that it saves every single frame as a progressive frame and is not only saving the changes inside the group of pictures.
