The New RICOH K-3 Looks G-R-E-A-T!

The cells that contain the elements in most lenses are usually
quite well sealed against dust coming in from outside. Normally
dust will only enter if the elements are actually removed.
That's why they are assembled in a dust free room.

My 55-300mm is spotless inside and I've had it for several
years and use it quite a lot.

Try lightening the shadows and you'll soon see how
poor ye olde sensors are

It looks to me as though the movie/still switch and the
1 or 2 SD Card button has been put there so that the
salesman in the shop can point them out to newbies

The K10D shot looks a bit cold and I've just had a go at
warming it up, but it wasn't very successful. The greens
went worse.

The K-5 greens are much better and improve with just a slight tweak
as shown below....

The flap over the carbuncle looks vulnerable as does the
dioptre adjustment..... why did they change it?

No shots showing the SD Card door side of the camera?

Most people will only use 1 SD Card so why waste a
button on selection? It looks easily caught/switched
by accident anyway.

The suns out on the 1st but not on the 2nd
So not a very useful comparison.

The K-3 is much better
