Monday Showcase: Pentax Cameras

 Lighthaus Camera has been a proud Pentax dealer for several months.  Recently, we just got a shipment of their top of the line tough style camera, the WG-3 and their DSLR cameras and lenses.  The Pentax brand has been around since the early part of the 20th century.  The Asahi Optical Joint Stock Company was created in a little shop in the Toshima district of Tokoyo and they specialized in providing Japanese camera makers high quality lenses that were superbly polished.

Fast forward to today and here are my thoughts on the WG-3.  We have the WG-3 listed for $269.99 and it is a great deal for an underwater camera that has a f/2.0-4.9 lens, GPS capabilities, six LED ring lights and is crush proof, dust proof, shock proof and cold proof down to minus 14 degrees F.  Definitely a great value for a tough style camera.

As for the DSLR's, I don't have any experience with these crop sensor cameras.  What I do like about them is the fact that the K30, K50, K5II, K5IIs, and K3 are weather sealed. Prices for those cameras start at around $600 and go up to about $1700. Getting a weather sealed camera from the other two kids on the block start at $2000.  What a great deal.

If you are looking for a new camera, come on down to any one of Lighthaus Camera's four locations to see what Pentax has to offer.

Lightroom 5 Class at Lighthaus Camera's Kona Location

A very special thank you goes out to Christian Farner for putting on the Lightroom 5 class last night. It looks like the students were very attentive and learned many new tips and tricks that Adobe's photo editor has to offer. I don't see any evidence of notes being passed around, gum chewing or funny drawings of the teacher. Thank you again Christian for putting on this very informative class, please accept my virtual apple.

Not only does Lighthaus Camera have four locations to serve you, we are happy to share our knowledge as well. It does not matter if you are a seasoned professional or a newbie, we will try our best to answer questions or find that piece of gear to complete your quiver of photographic arrows.
