Looks pretty decent. And by decent, I mean incredible. 10.2mp, anti-dust, shake-reduction, weathersealed body, all for less than $1,000.

Hmm, looks like Steve figured out his link was discovered and he took it down. Never fear, someone was able to save the page as a PDF file:

So now I'm hoping that the K100D will start dropping in price.

With those features for that price it does look quite awesome.

Will those 22 bits be available in RAW?

No those blue buttons are on the older Pentax DSLRs too - Can*n must have copied Pentax ;-)

For those not yet on Pentax's mailing list - here's a link to a flash presentation. Also, a chance to win a car for taking the virtual "test drive".

Me thinks Pentx has *finally* gotten the right idea and done what people were asking them to do. The entire K line looks very well made and well researched. Kudos to one of the best camera companies ever. Now, if they'd just follow up on that advertising thing... :)

That presentation only mentions the K100D..

Patience grasshopper.. :)

Looks like they change the image at the beginning before the flash begins. The other day when I viewed the flash it was the K100D with the rims.
09/13/2006 10:20:13 PM · #24
K1D ?
09/13/2006 10:22:32 PM · #25
Now all we need is the 645D to be released.... triple drool....
