Really a poor piece of ill informed 'journalism'. Hey look at me I can skim read a few articles and make stuff up, now I'm a journalist!

"Very Lazy journalism. From the picture it appears to have been written by a wide boy from 1988. What an utter ****"

Indeed.

There's plenty of utter tits writing about products on the Net and/or in paper publications. Very few of them have any real credibility.

Not somethign wasting one's valuable time on IMO.

Now you guys are confusing me.... everybody pm'd me in another thread to inform me that "Great tits" were birds, not what I thought they were at all, now you're telling me they're journalists?
Look at it this way, if the man didn't interject a few lines of idiocy, his bosses would've spotted the fact that he simply plagiarized a press release... so blame his editor...unless of course his editor has tits, or is a tit... 'cause that would be sexist... as if birds could file a complaint... they can't even proofread.
In that line of work it is better to be an idiot than a plagiarist. Trust me if there's one thing I know...it's idiocy.
Fired many shots. Didn't kill anything.

Yes, some widely varying points of view. As for the negative aspects, video's like this don't help sales.

Hopefully, the next Pentax DSLR camera will be trouble free. The QA side of Pentax were probably left unsupervised by Hoya, Ricoh need to take note and get a grip.

That's disgraceful if they are. We often hear UK propaganda

It's probably a copyright issue as the file is a video file.

I wrote a comment, there's a clue there to which one is mine

It looks like he lost control of the Flowbee Haircut Systems product he reviewed...
