According to our SLR camera expert
The Pentax K-S2 is a compact single-lens reflex camera with an APS-C image sensor and is suitable for more experienced photographers. You can make landscape and portrait photos with the 18-55mm lens. Use the tiltable screen or optical viewfinder to find the perfect frame. Even though the camera has a compact shape, the viewfinder is equipped with a high-quality pentaprism that provides 100% coverage. As a result, you're always sure you've got the right shot. Focusing is easy and quick thanks to the new autofocus module. Combined with an image speed of 5.4 fps, this makes the K-S2 suitable for action photography. The addition of WiFi allows you to control the camera from a distance using your smartphone or upload you pictures directly to your timeline.

Very user-friendly, even for beginners. If you don't want to use the screen, just turn it off and turn it inwards so it's protected. The battery lasts longer than the reviews you read online suggest

This camera is ideal for an enthusiastic beginner who plans to learn a lot and really wants to get started with photography. The camera has an excellent automatic mode, but when delving into the settings and options, the difference is immediately visible in the photos. Furthermore, the camera fits well in the hand and the operation is logical (and therefore easy to use).
The only drawback I think is the WiFi app. I can't connect to the WiFi app, even after searching online tutorials & support. This removes some possibilities that I really miss (such as remote control of the camera and the direct loading of the photos to your smartphone).

This camera has an extensive range of ISO values, shutter speeds and apertures which is very useful for taking beautiful pictures. In addition, you can 'flip' the screen to avoid scratches or damage to the screen itself. The device is very easy to operate while taking pictures when you want to change the ISO value, for example. Its small size offers the advantage of being easy to carry everywhere. In addition, it is suitable for both family photos and landscape photos. The only downside (and this isn't even really a downside) is that it takes about 4 hours to charge.
