Pentax K-7 Accessories

By Anthony Cruz

A good news for enthusiasts or semi-pro photographers: Pentax is set to release the K-7 lens-interchangeable DSLR camera next month. The Pentax K-7 price is all worth it, selling for $1,299.95. Here are some of the Pentax K-7 accessories.

Upgraded lenses

The Pentax smc P-DA 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 AL is perfect for the K-7. Its optical design has been improved, with improved resolution and less lens elements to better match with the latest high-res image sensors. This lens perfectly complements a Pentax DSLR camera.

Rechargeable lithium-ion battery

A large-capacity, rechargeable lithium-ion battery juices the Pentax K-7. With this battery, you can shoot around 980 images when it is fully charged.

Memory card

The SanDisk 4GB Ultra II Secure Digital High Capacity (SDHC) Memory Card has a minimum of 10MB per second read speed and least 9MB per second write speed. This memory card is ideal for the most difficult photo shoots like photojournalism and events, sports, fashion, and nature photography.

Flash

For the flash accessory, I suggest you get the Pentax AF-360 FGZ. It works well with the latest MZ-S, 645N, MZ-SD, or Digital *ist series cameras, including even the classic 67-system lenses.

Tripod

When you buy Pentax K-7, make sure to also get the Bogen/Manfrotto 190XB Tripod Legs with 484RC2 Mini Ballhead, which builds on the achievement of the 3001 series. This tripod has undergone improvement to offer enhanced leg angle release mechanism ergonomics and better quick-action leg locks.

Infrared remote control

One of the basic Pentax K-7 accessories is the Pentax Remote Control F infrared remote control. This accessory is handy for capturing photos of difficult to approach subjects, for self-portraits, or for minimizing vibration for time exposure and close-ups.

Bag

The Pentax DSLR Gadget Bag (black) is a good storage bag for the Pentax K-7. This bag is a nylon bag tailored to carry the camera body, as well as selection of flash, memory cards, lenses, and many other Pentax DSLR camera accessories. Its major compartments have foam padding and it sports interior dividers that you can adjust for case customization.
