is this pic of K30D?

From a Hongkong pentax forum. The words below are,

New PRIME II image engine
almost 100% view finder coverage. Pentaprism type
14.6M effective pixels CMOS sensor
3 inches with 920,000 pixels LCD with live view, HD video and HDMI output
Build-in SR image stabilization, Mag-alloy body with water and dust proof, supersonic duct removal system

That's all.

Almost 100% viewfinder? That's annoying - not so much the almost part but the not giving an exact figure part. Also the the almost part

Super-sonic dust removal is interesting - presumably Pentax have found away around Olympus' patents then? Ot liscenced them?

There are 2 versions of specification of K-7. Funny...There is difference.
One has 1/180 x-sync, second - 1/250. For example.

Looks awesome! Wish we had more weatherproof/sealed primes

That's strange

Is that a FA77/1.8 limited on that K-7?

I'm wondering too.

Looks like the 77mm to me.

I guess they pictured it with that because it is a good looking lens - although they could equally have used the 35mm Macro ltd or one of the other DAs.

I'm wondering too.

my very first thoughts as well.

I think they chose the FA 77 Limited because "77" is the magical value in this camera...

[kolouch]

Two specs? 1/180 & 1/250? :-(

Ah, I guess that may well be it!

AFAIK camera manufacturers often use words like 'almost' or 'approx' when mentioning 100% viewfinder because no camera has 'precise' 100% viewfinder.

good point

[watchthewaves]

I take the Chinese word to mean "approximately" or "about" more than "almost". If you notice, its the same word they also use to state that the sensor is 14.6MP.

That's strange

Just a way to trace back leaks?
