Grows on you doesn't it.
I think I still prefer the black blob though (std K20D).

Looks a bit of a monster

Viewed from the rear I believe there is an external microphone and HDMI connector on the left, all other connections and card slots are on the right.

Who of you like the new design?
I fear these pictures are likely the product of some enterprising photoshopper with too much time on his hands rather than of Pentax corporation.
From what I can see they look pretty genuine and certainly consistent with all the other snips (photos) that have gradually appeared over the last few weeks.
We will of course know for sure next week but I would be very surprised if it looks any different from pictures Unlocker posted / linked to

PS I think the new 18-55 kit PS'd onto the mount is believed to be water and dust proof

Yes I agree with all the positive SRS comments here, they are without doubt a top outfit

I bought mine (a while back) primarily for the battery capacity, the improved handling balance is a bonus

I too got the occasional missed focus but found the lens was front focussing when wide open, particularly in poor lighting. I dialled in a correction and now I would say its 99% spot on

I like it, it looks simple (i.e. not fussy), functional and robust.

I don't think there is any harm is taking new design direction with this body. I like the K20D but I also like the fact this new one is a bit smaller. Only slight negative comment would be that the grip doesn't appear to be such a nicely integrated 'design' as the current BG2.

Mike's right, have a look from page 240 onwards in your operating manual
