  • Pentax K-3 III Monochrome
  • approx. 25.73 megapixels (effective)
  • APS-C format
  • special CMOS image sensor
  • developed for monochrome black and white photography
  • remarkable imaging performance
  • Numerous advanced functions

A digital SLR camera with an image sensor specially developed for the ultimate quality in monochrome black and white photography.
The concept of a digital SLR camera for monochrome photography was presented to interested Pentax photographers at a PENTAX online meeting held in November 2021 and attracted a lot of attention and interest. For the development team, this was the reason and motivation to research the development of a commercial product based on this concept.

The design of the new model is based on the PENTAX K-3 Mark III - the flagship of the PENTAX series in APS-C format. It is characterized by the fact that it combines remarkable imaging performance and a wide range of advanced functions in a compact and robust body.

The PENTAX K-3 Mark III Monochrome is a monochrome-specific digital
SLR camera in APS-C format that is currently unique on the market. It captures high-resolution, monochrome images that are rich in gradation and gray scale reproduction. It enables photographers to use all their senses and imagination to express their view of the colorful world in simple black and white images.

Special CMOS image sensor for monochrome images
Conventional image sensors receive light through a matrix of red, green and blue filters. Each pixel only captures one color component. In order to create a black and white image from this, conventional cameras have to perform an interpolation. Color data is converted into monochrome data. The new, exclusive monochrome image sensor, on the other hand, only captures brightness information that is received by each pixel and thus creates the finest black and white images with a higher resolution and finer gradations - without interpolation.

To optimize the quality of black and white images, the camera has a special monochrome CMOS image sensor, without a low-pass filter (AA), with approx. 25.73 megapixels (effective) in APS-C format.

Image quality developed exclusively for black and white photography The image quality of the original PENTAX K-3 Mark III has been re-evaluated and redesigned from the ground up to make the most of the new image sensor's characteristics for black and white photography. The result is a more sensitive expression with a natural bokeh effect, rich gradations and greater sharpness - a result that only a monochrome image sensor can offer.

A selection of special renderings for black and white
The PENTAX K-3 Mark III Monochrome offers three image adjustment modes designed exclusively for black and white shooting, allowing you to add a unique finishing touch to your images. In addition to the standard mode, it offers a high-contrast mode that delivers high-contrast images and a soft mode that allows you to create high-key shots with reduced contrast.
Each mode can be refined with different settings such as tonal value, low-key/high-key, contrast and sharpness. In this way, photographers can personalize their photos and give them the desired finishing touches.

Design elements aligned with the idea of monochrome photography
The "monochrome" concept runs through the housing design and has been taken up in various places. The camera menu is in black and white as standard, and the controls and printed symbols are in three shades of gray. This makes the operation and design equally attractive and user-friendly.
The SR (Vibration Reduction) logo with a silver finish and the "Monochrome" lettering on the back round off the camera's appearance.

Note:
As the PENTAX K-3 Mark III Monochrome is intended exclusively for black and white photography, some of its features and functions differ from those of the PENTAX K-3 Mark III. You can check all the original features and functions in the specifications table below.
