In a world where most DSLR lines have stopped receiving meaningful updates, Pentax has dropped a fresh round of firmware for four of its K-series DSLRs. The Pentax K-1 II, K-1, KF and K-70 all get improved Astrotracer star-tracking accuracy, plus minor stability tweaks.
For DSLR shooters, no matter your brand, this raises a bigger question: will DSLRs in the future still get firmware updates at all? With Canon ending DSLR development, Nikon's focus landing firmly on mirrorless and Sony having long exited optical-viewfinder cameras, the Pentax update is a rare blip on the radar.
