“EUROPEAN PROFESSIONAL CAMERA OF THE YEAR 2011-2012”
Pentax Imaging Systems is pleased to announce that the PENTAX 645D
medium-format digital SLR camera, has been selected as the European professional
camera of the year 2011-2012 by the prestigious European Imaging and Sound
Association (EISA).
The PENTAX 645D, which was launched in the UK in September 2010, was singled out
because of the camera’s exceptional image quality, reliability and superb
operability.
The European Imaging and Sound Association (EISA) is an organisation comprised
of 50 leading magazines across 19 European countries. Each year, EISA awards
prizes for outstanding products introduced to the European market in the
previous year.
EISA members highlighted several key features in its official citation. Jorge
Goncalves, President, EISA said: “With the introduction of the Pentax 645D, the
medium-format market has gained a much anticipated and highly competitive member
that offers exceptional image-quality and handling.
“The 645D is a joy to use in the field, and although it is big and somewhat
heavy, its ergonomic grip, large viewfinder, fast and accurate autofocus, and
well-made controls make it perfectly usable without a tripod. With its 33x44mm,
40-million-pixel, Kodak CCD-sensor it is a landscape photographer’s dream,
creating absolutely stunningly sharp and detailed pictures with very attractive
colours and a huge dynamic range. As a serious photographer’s tool, the Pentax
645D is second to none.”
This is the third award for the PENTAX 645D, as the camera has already received
a European TIPA and Japanese Camera Grand Prix award since its launch..
