Originally posted by Spock It's a real shame the full suite of power zoom functions aren't available on Pentax DSLRs. The image size tracking and zoom clip functions are still impressive and would be useful today.
I've wondered about that, as it seems to be trivial to implement on today's cameras, but none of the current crop of lenses have power zooms, so that would have to be added to all the lenses.
And I'd have to wonder how much of a redesign that would require (surely more than "throw some zoom motors in there").
Having a cool set of features like that limited mostly to a subset of mediocre 90s lenses would be awful
and there aren't many of the good PZ ones floating around, I don't think...
