Nikon are claiming marvels for their new sensor design on the D300 and D3, so perhaps Pentax came up with some tricks of their own. You never know. I would definately like to see a more gradual highlight falloff to make studio work easier, but extra shadow range would be nice too. Ideally all this would be set in camera....
3fps? I can work with that. In other respects I would be happy with general refinement of the K10D - a bit quieter, smoother and faster all round but nothing major. I would love the shutter from the *istD - it was sooo quiet by comparison. I guess they have to add liveview just to compete but I will probably never use it.
