New Pentax FF ..image released on PhotoRumors?
My main concern about the crop issue is really about having a smaller image, and vignetting and black space within the viewfinder (I assume the live view can just zoom in with a software adjustment?) .... This I would find distracting I'm sure and it would interfere with quick and efficient framing,...

New Pentax FF ..image released on PhotoRumors?
Fair point but since very many Pentaxians have been looking inter alia for a proper home for their FALtds (first and second place in the greatest ever Pentax lens competition) it would be pretty shoot yourself in the foot to tease that has finally arrived and then not to support the lenses. Unless...

New Pentax FF ..image released on PhotoRumors?
Great to see those pictures, thank you! Its a handsome beast for sure , certainly the styling really looks the business ... a serious tool ! Now I can see the hotshoe sitting way back beyond that rather unusual pentaprism shape ..... why would it be shaped coming into that point I wonder? T...

Pentax K-S2
Just woke up to that one, you beat me to it K10D! :lol::lol::lol: Back of the camera looks a little cramped which leads me to believe it's quite small, I think there is however a pretty clear line where your thumb will sit to avoid accidentally hitting buttons, so it might be perfectly fine? Plent...

Pentax K-S2
It's a very good looking camera for my type of shooting which includes low level macros. Yes there are a few things I wish they would change from my K-30 such as move the lv button back to the right hand side like my K-r, plus give me a separate ae-l and af button. However I know I can never get a c...

Pentax K-S2
My first digital camera was a Canon G2 in 2002 which had a fully articulated screen, and I really liked it. I especially liked the fact you could shut the back with the screen inwards so that the screen was in no danger of damage in an over-stuffed bag. If it is as flexible as that screen it is a ...

Pentax FF new pixel/sensor shift technology
And hopefully rolled back to previous models with sensor shift hardware... That would be like a car manufacturer bringing out a DeLuxe model with a big powerful engine and also giving it away to people who'd previously bought the basic family runaround :mrgreen: :wink: --

Pentax K-S2 specifications
I found the USA pricing soon after my post. The UK prices aren't too bad I suppose...particularly as these are the launch prices. They'll probably knock £20-£30 off for Easter. Not sure that the new 18-50 kit lens will hold a £100 price though..I would have thought its more likely to be just £70-£80...

Pentax K-S2 specifications
I had read somwhere Adrian, that the original Spec (Rumoured) was a dumbed down version of the K3 meter and focus, a 29,000 zone RGB colour meter and fifteen focus points as you suggest, they are the only slight let downs in otherwise a fabulously well specced camera, I would however not have ever e...

Pentax K-S2 specifications
For me I'd settle for 11 focus points in exchange for -3EV. Howver, this is up against the Nikon D5300 for instance with 39 autofocus points. SRS list the key features of the D5300 as i) 24mp and ii) 39 AF points. I think there is a vast market of buyers preconditioned into Canikon who will look...

If they can't fit the electronics in for a wired remote they should re-introduce the 2-stage shutter release button with the thread so we can use mechanical wired release cable and bring the bellows back in to proper use too.

I get what you mean Steve, for flipping open the screen and agree but what I'm getting at is that raised edge in close proximity to the left hand button on the D-pad. Now this is supposition on my part but going back to my X-T1 saga it too has recessed buttons (Buttonery, new word for John!) pushed ...

Actually in stock now, at B&H in the states, won't be long here then, I'm actually quite excited to try one out, 12 bit capture is a downer for me but I'm still interested though, even if I am waiting for the K3 MKII...
