New Pentax Superzoom: X5 (Photokina Leak)
too bad they did not make this with a q lens mount...
I'm like this would totally sell more q system lenses then I saw "16 mp" on the lens and was like WTF?
Cheers
Do you reckon that the lens is fixed or interchangeable? ...
The X series are bridge cameras like X90 or X70. Those have 4.6-119.6/110.4mm zoom range that is similar to the range of this camera.

is that 1/2" x 1/3" or just a ratio with v.poor skills mixing decimal, not massively important I'm just hurting my head trying to suss it out.
"Sensor formats of digital cameras are mostly expressed in the non-standardized "inch" system as approximately 1.5 times the length of the diagonal of the sensor. This goes back to the way image sizes of video cameras used until the late 1980s were expressed, referring to the outside diameter of the glass envelope of the video camera tube."
