Why does it have faster AF though (did I miss something?).
I must admit after using a friends D90 I couls see that Pentax is lagging behind a bit there.
Very helpful for sports shooters so Im told.

I wonder how many more sales would be generated by a slick looking & easy to navigate website ? A fair few I would imagine.
If they bothered to put it on the web site.

Ok...2 things: The Weather sealed kit lens. If it's available seperately I can see myself getting that!

sorry mike i will take my words and eat them, it sounds ok when its put like that, but will it be that much of an improvment,

Actually thats not a plus in my book but at least it can be made chunkier with the grip.

doesn't seem much better than the k20 to me, i expect more,
Faster AF
faster shutter speeds
mag alloy body
New image processor
new dust system
100% viewfinder coverage
HD video with jack
better live view
face recognition
bigger lcd with more pixels
better exposure
new focus screen which is better for manual focus
built in AF assist light
To name but some differences.
What more did you expect?
