Amazing Colored KR Offerings

slappyfin3 · 04-18-2012, 07:14 PM

I just got my KR from the Marketplace of this forum but when I saw this my heart sank:

Walmart.com: Your Choice: Pentax K-r 12.4MP DSLR Camera Bundle w/ 18-55mm Lens, 3" LCD, and HD Video Value Bundle: Digital Cameras

They even have the navy KR!! I guess it's just my luck haha

But anyway, I wouldn't trade in my KR for anything but if there are any of you who are interested in getting the KR this seems to be a pretty good bundle plus the color options are amazing (I didn't know there was a brown kr too!)

The silver one is pretty hot!

Guess Ned closed that Big Box placement deal he's been working on for a year......

These colors have been around for a while (since last fall if I'm not mistaken)- at the time, Walmart's prices were higher than those of other retailers, but now they're actually a pretty good deal since the camera is out of production.

I know! It actually looks more taupe than silver to me but a hot color nevertheless

I wish i would have seen that too when i got mine. But luckily i didnt. I fell in love with the white body. The Japanese website used to allow you to create custom colors for every part of the K-R. If i can find the link again i'll be sure to post.
