Pentax are one of the greatest camera and lens makers in history, a true founding father of photography and if you doubt that - consider this:
1952 Asahiflex 1 First Japanese SLR camera and first to use 35mm film
1954 Asahiflex 2 World's first instant return mirror system eliminates mirror blackout when taking pictures
1957 Asahi Pentax introduces the fixed Pentaprism to enable eye level shooting through the lens
1957 Pentax Auto-Takumar lenses are the first lenses with automatic lens diaphragms controlled by internal signalling between body and lens to permit instantaneous stopdown and re-opening after shutter release. As a result the SLR becomes the dominant standard in photography.
1960 Pentax Spotmatic Pentax pioneers world's first in pentaprism TTL metering system
1962 David Bailey shoots the most famous fashion shoot in history with Jean Shrimpton in New York for Vogue on a Pentax 35mm Spotmatic S3. This is the first time Vogue publishes a major fashion spread not shot with a medium format camera and it launches Bailey and Shrimpton on a journey to superstardom. It changes the way fashion is shot for the rest of the decade and ushers in the 'new wave' style of photography.
1966 Pentax Nocta World's first infra-red focussing system enables focus confirmation in total darkness
1969 Pentax 6x7 world's first medium format camera with 35mm style handling and features
1971 Pentax ES World's first aperture priority mode with TTL metering
1971 Pentax invent multi-coating lens process for up to 9 layers of lens coating later licenced by Zeiss and everyone else. Even today Zeiss lenses use Pentax SMC coatings. Up to that point nobody had managed to put more than 4 layers of coating on a lens and many lenses still had no coatings or single layers.
1975 Pentax K mount launched
1976 Pentax MX World's smallest and lightest SLR camera
1979 Pentax ME Super World's first SLR with push-button control
1980 Pentax ME-F World's first autofocus SLR - a full 10 years before this became commonplace
1981 Pentax is the first manufacturer to produce 10 million SLR's
1985 Pentax D3000 First 35mm SLR camera with DX film sensing
1987 Pentax SF-7 World's first SLR with automatic pop up flash
1997 Pentax 645N World's first autofocus medium format camera
2001 Pentax abort launch of the world's first full frame DSLR due performance issues with Phillips designed sensor
2002 Pentax limited lenses widely hailed as the best autofocus SLR lenses in the world
2003 Pentax Ist d, first digital Pentax SLR and smallest and lightest DSLR in the world
2006 Pentax Ist DL - First DSLR for less than £500
2006 K100D Pentax first body with in body stabilisation (no Nikon or Canon camera to date has ever had this feature because they build it into their lenses, but you pay extra for it in cost, weight and bulk everytime you buy a lens...)
2008 Pentax K20D First budget/prosumer DSLR with weather sealing
2010 Pentax 645 D first digital medium format camera with SLR like handling qualities
2011 Pentax Q Worlds smallest and lightest interchangeable lens camera system launched
2011 Pentax 645D wins 'camera of the year' and voted best professional DSLR by TIPA
2013 Pentax K3 pioneer's world's first selectable anti-aliasing system, wins best DSLR of the year (TIPA)
2014 Pentax 645Z 51 megapixel medium format DSLR launched at a price point £7000 one third of its Hasselblad competitors. First medium format digital camera with on board video recording.
2015 DXO testing reveals 645Z to have the best sensor performance (and hence image quality) of any camera it has ever tested (and they've tested nearly all of them). These results are suppressed probably due to embarrassment on the part of Nikon and Canon whose full frame cameras do not even come close to the performance of 645Z.
2016 Pentax launches its first full frame DSLR (to worldwide acclaim!!)
