THIS IS *NOT* AN ENDORSEMENT BY THE U.S. ARMY
I’m demonstrating the weather sealing and dust resistance offered by PENTAX’s bodies and lenses ( and ) while deployed in Afghanistan by covering them in sand, small rocks, and dust, and then rinsing them off in the shower.
PENTAX K-7 DA* 50-135 f/2.8
PENTAX K-5 D-BG4 Battery Grip DA* 16-50 f/2.8
Since this video was uploaded (July 2012), I have also owned/used the K-30, K-50, K-5 IIs, K-3 (plus D-BG5 battery grip) and can personally attest to their weather sealing and ability to withstand the above.
