If dxomark is correct, the sigma 18-35 is the highest resolving zoom
period and yeah its probably out-resolving the k-3, at least in the

Don't count out a used K-5 or a refurbished/used K-5 IIs. Both can be
had for less cost than a K-50. The K-5 II has a vastly improved AF
over the k-5/k-50. Something to consider. The biggest differences
between the k-5 and k-50 outside of build quality is the AF. The K-50
uses an improved k-5

Wow. thanks for letting me know that the old keh site is still up!
also the k-30 is the same damned camera as the k-50, but with arguably
better looks. I used one and really liked it, but its definitely not
on the same level as the k-5 II in terms of feel and build quality. I
meant to add that you

That's not factoring in read noise, processing and quite a few other
variables. My take is that the K-5 series produces cleaner files out
of the box at any ISO. How much I can push shadows without seeing
noise is of great interest to me. I feel that you can likely get files
from the K-3 with equal
I hear you. Want my list? My first K-7 was and is a mostly reliable
camera, but the front e-dial barely works now despite efforts to clean
it with contact cleaner. It will get better for a while and then
revert back to registering turns in the wrong direction. Bummer. The
shutter button also has

Retrofocus does better on digital because it is more telecentric by
design. The advantage of rangefinders was that such designs could be
avoided, but that was when people were shooting film. Digital sensors
all have filter stacks, so even with microlenses, you are always going
to have problems
