This is just a remarketed compact camera. ok it might not be rubbish as a compact but IMO it is no way to match with something like the Olympus EP1 & EP2 and no way match the fuji X100.
The Q is totally another size and as someone noted earlier in this thread is near in size to the Canon S95. Whether we would by it or whether the price is right is a whole different matter.
Pentax might have got it wrong here, by I think it is right that they are trying to come out with different products to differentiate from competition.

Alright, time to come clean PentaxExpert. This must surely be wind-up. Who are you really?
Since his first thread my theory is that is a Forum member who was banned a while back... Sort of revenge.
But I must say that these threads are among the most active. And amusing, if taken with the right attitude!

Can't be that bad though as I have 3 pics taken with it in the PPG.
I never regretted buying this lens, IMO it performs very well in real life, and it produces very nice colours.

No, I posted to Italy against all the advice I received including from Italian friends! Also look at the post above yours. Check how many regular sellers on eBay and elsewhere won't post to Italy and think why Italy is the only EU country Royalmail will send to with Airsure!!

My response was to Helios, I believe
In any case, to be correct, Airsure is not available for deliveries to 13 EU countries.
.. I have sent and received tens of parcels to/from Italy without problems. A couple of months ago I ordered something from the UK (to Finland) and it never arrived. I do still order from the UK, though

I have since then been reluctant to post anything to Italy.

You telling me that the EP1 and the X100 is more like the KR?? IMO it is much smaller than the KR and sit in between the Q and the KR just like its sensor size. But come on just use the same sensor as K5 does on the Q and they got the product right and I am sure that would sell very very well.
Pentax K-R 12.7 x 6.8 x 9.7
Fuji X100 12.5 x 5.4 x 7.4
Pentax Q 9.8 x 3.1 x 5.8
Canon S95 9.9 x 3.0 x 5.8
I would like to see it in real life and have a chance to test it......
