About this item

The high-performance 645D medium-format digital SLR combines exceptional image quality with excellent maneuverability and outstanding reliability to make outdoor shooting effortless and comfortable for discerning photographers who demand nothing but the highest image quality.

Thanks to the incorporation of a large, high-performance image sensor (measuring 44mm by 33mm) and PENTAX-original image-processing technology, it produces extra-sharp, super-high-resolution images with approximately 40 effective megapixels.

It features remarkable durability and dependability, thanks to its lightweight but solidly built body featuring a magnesium-steel-alloy frame, reinforced glass LCD panel protectors and a reliable dustproof, weather-resistant construction. In addition, it is designed to be compatible with the majority of the existing PENTAX 645 system, including the high-performance smc PENTAX 645 interchangeable lenses.
