K-01 - Black Version?
Look at Olympus, they're going back to basics, an OM shape digital.

K-01 - Black Version?
What the OM-D pretends to be is an OM camera in digital form and the advertising is pitched to appeal to that retro desire. I am indeed aware that there is an EVF, but unfortunately I'm not a big fan of the EVF. Where they are offered I end up using the back screen anyway, even on the Sony SLT m...

K-01 - Black Version?
At the end of the day, the manufacturer will have to base his product on the response of the majority and not the minority. If it sells, he has a winner, if not, its back to the drawing board. In many cases nothing beats the view finder for a good composition, personally I will make a bee line fo...

K-01 - Black Version?
Leica have found it difficult to design a digital camera, basically because the back focus is so short. This means lenses are very far from the ideal telecentric design that sensors have so far required. Colour problems have also required special filters, not an elegant solution. The problem isn'...

K-01 in de zeen
As long as Pentax continue to make 'engineered' DSLRs as well they can play away as much as they like with this toy like look. Sony's update of the pellicle mirror for example is much more of interest as is the apparant progress on electronic viewfinders (I had a Konica A200 once and it was awef...

Images with a K-01
At the top it says none: "Taken with PENTAX K-01 ( sample model ) & smc PENTAX DA STAR 50-135MM F2.8 . DIRECT JPG FROM CAMERA NO PS . ReSIZE FOR BLOG" One interesting thing is that a couple of the photos show the K5 wearing what looks to be the new 40mm pancake - I thought I'd read that it would...

It is a Silver Edition K-5 with a grip, and the 40mm connected. If you look at the picture carefully (there are several of the K-5 40mm pancake combination) you will notice they were made by the K-01 and the DA* 50-135mm telezoom lens (also recognizable by the unsharpness of the focus, unfortunately...

Pentax Q viewfinder
I keep looking a photographs of this camera, I haven't seen one in the flesh, and can't think of a reason to buy one. :roll: I think it's something you have to see in the flesh before deciding. I was very tempted by the recent prices but, like you, couldn't really see why I needed one, other than th...

Quite I.....
I got one a couple of weeks back, just the standard prime version. I really have enjoyed using it every day. It fits in my coat pocket, and I put a wrist strap on it rather than a shoulder strap, which seems to suit it better; it seems less awkward.. I was worried I was throwing £320 quid at an e...

Q at 'Focus'
I would be rather miffed if I had splashed out £600 quite recently. But this is now sensible and tempting. Tough choice between the Q and a very good current deal on a Panny GF3. Not that tough actually as I can't afford either at the moment. Hopefully now the Q will start selling and there may be...

Q at 'Focus'
Is the adapter available yet? It certainly looks like a very useful idea.

Q at 'Focus'
Is the adapter available yet? It certainly looks like a very useful idea. John. I do worry about the crop factor - not sure how small the sensor on the Q is, compared to the K5's.
