It's not in the official specs either. Ah well.

Official K-5 page is here btw:

No doubt you will be at the front of the line for a free trial .

Now I'm confused.
Pentax are supposed to be bringing out new flashes for use with IRsimple. The K-r has this so is compatible.
According to depressingreview though the K-5 doesn't? Surely Pentax will no bring out flashes which can only work with one lower model, not with their flagship model?

Not having owned any of those, and not having really looked at the specs on them I didn't know.

I am just happy that my next camera has it.

The dark frame NR off switch is the real hooray for me though .

Now who's going to get it in stock soon? Chris?????

johnwhit already posted the link here Lidy.

Nah the Mosel is much prettier than Lidl .

I can recommend an excellent hotel should you want to go .

Flavoured cider ? What's wrong with apple? Or even better perry?

Hooray!!!!

Also Hooray

Sounds like the sort of road we love exploring, though for some reason the sheer drop is always on my side of the car .

I still find it hard to believe Pentax would wait until day 2 of Photokina to reveal the K-5.
There is no Pentax press conference listed for any of the days of the exhibition.
Samsung have a press conference today I see.

I doubt I'll be able to hold one, but it will be good to at least be able to see the thing. And the new compacts too - they are also of interest.


There are lots of other things I want to see at Photokina besides the Pentax stand, though it, being convenient for the entrance from the train station, will probably be first on my list. I do have to go past the Pod stand to get to it, so may get diverted by that first .

And when I have had enough there is always the city to wander around.

Oh and 4pm BST? so 5 PM here?
