Pentax Packaging

As innovative as ever, Pentax won an award for the packaging of the Pentax K10DPicasa Web Albums - Yves - Pentax Packaging

Since I only have the french version of the article, here is an abbreviated version:

"The innovative printed products award from manroland was presented to PENTAX (HOYA Corporation) and printed by SHIMIZU Printing Inc., Japan for best application Packaging. The packaging also obtained a gold medal at Kamera Grand Prix 2007."

The remaining is printing technical specs.

Wow, cool and sort of strange lol. Apple has been getting a lot of attention for their packaging practices, and being "green" while being attractive.

I know I was impressed by the K10's container both inside and out (the black box). The Canon "Rebel" boxes still look like they're from the 90s

The packaging shown is the one for the K10D "Grand Prix" edition.

I know...I was just saying how nice even the "base" packages are
