Pentax K-m Review: IQ an Easy Match For Rivals

For a little more than $500, Pentax offers begining photographers anxious to move up to a DSLR the Pentax K-m bundled with an 18-55mm lens. Featuring a 10 megapixel sensor and built in image stabilization, the K-m faces quite a bit of competition from the likes of the Sony A200, Nikon D60, and Canon Rebel XS.

In a review of the K-m, Trusted Reviews finds the K-m to be an excellent first camera with build equaling or exceeding the rivals, fast AF (with a catch), and yes, great image quality:

Finally we come to image quality, and here there is good news. When shooting in Raw mode the K-m produces sharp, perfectly exposed images with excellent natural colour reproduction, and is easily a match for any of its immediate rivals, and even for a couple of more expensive models.
