Für Absteiger Die Pentax Q ist eher eine Absteigerkamera: Sie ist für Spiegelreflex-Fans geeignet, die sich eine wenig Platz wegnehmende Notfallkamera mit allen Einstellmöglichkeiten ihrer „großen“ wünschen. Eine andere Zielgruppe sind Spielertypen, d...
No one can deny that the Pentax Q adds a little colour to the market. Its main talking points will always be its size, for reasons good and bad. The current ‘smallest interchangeable-lens camera uses a much smaller sensor, but this is central to its bein...
The Pentax Q may look like a toy camera at first glance, but it actually proves to be a lot more full featured and intuitive to use in practice. Compact-like image quality and a sky-high price tag, however, combine to seriously detract from what is ot...
Spy-gadget compactness, Good image quality, Surprisingly good ISO performance, Loads of creative/digital filter effects
Limited depth of field, Fiddly buttons, Uncompetitive price, Limited choice of compatible lenses
While the Pentax Q might look like a miniature DSLR, at heart it's very much an advanced compact and this needs to be kept in mind when judging overall image quality. Compared against other compacts using a 1/2.3in sensor, including those that fall within...

Impressively, the Pentax Q offers a good amount of manual controls in video mode, including the ability to set aperture, shutter speed, and ISO during recording. Many of the cameras in this class include little to no controls in video mode, so we're happy...
