That's the link I posted that got deleted I don't think
your allowed to look at the K-01 until tomorrow on here!

The lens is shown on a K-5 on that page, he's just rubbed K-5
out to show just the lens.

This is the K-5 link

Your right Don... popup flash

You'd find that red button easy... it's right by the strap which
would be very awkward to use if you had the camera at waste level.

There looks to be another button on the same place by the other strap?

I can only see one dial?

The rotary switch looks to have as many selections as the K-5,
but one for HDR as well (never used HDR on the K-5 so I don't know
where the switches are).

It would be too easy to knock it on right on the end.... might be the ISO and the designers being silly?

Looks Good... I might even buy one!!!!

Nice signature on the bottom

No pics of the back yet

Wonder what the Red button does?

Edit: Pics of the back aren't being released until tomorrow ;-(

40mm = 60mm on 35mm????? Who in their right mind would choose
that as a standard lens???... they are normally wider?

Sounds like the lens has been chosen purely for appearances
sake? In fact considering that there's no VF it sounds
like the whole camera is just for appearances sake

No.... Retail Price is Retail Price

It's not often that a price comparison works out so simple

The RPI for Jan 1990 was 119.5
The RPI for Dec 2011 was 239.4

So that's an increase 0f 2.003x..... near as dammit 2x

So the 50mm f/1.7 would be £120 and
the 50mm f/1.4 £200

The cheapest SFXn + 50mm f/1.7 kit would be £700

Looking at other lenses the prices today look very much
on the high side apart from Macro lenses which are
cheaper.

According to the Fishwicks 1990-91 Catalogue

The F50 f1/7 was sold as part of the SFXn and SF7 Kits, that's why
there are so many kicking about. Cost SFXn and F50 f1/7 £349.95

The camera could also be bought with the 28/80mm £399.95 or the
35-70mm £429.95

I actually bought the SFXn body only £289.00 plus the
24-50mm zoom £255.00 = £544..... Ouch!!

The 50mm lenses alone were: f/1.4 = £100 f/1.7 = £60

I already had F50 f1/7 and later bought the FA50 f/1.4
I used to find the f/1.4 sharper on film, but on the K20D
the f/1.7 was sharper at every aperture up to f/8

The 'A' 50mm f/1.7 was just slightly better than the F 1.7

Which this one??? link
Something looks to be in the wrong place Posssibly they were designed by Picasso
