Yeah, I definitely noticed a difference after the firmware update for the 01 Prime.

I have to say get the Q if you want the prime 01- You can't buy it any other way. I believe as said above firmware update helps in just about everything else.

Q10 is lighter and faster. I got the red one was going to customize Q10 (100 colour to choice from) but take two weeks and it only for Japan so no point. I got the two lens kit (02 and 06 lens), viewfinder and wide lens for my girlfriend. She want to start using camera not just the camera on iPhone and I think it a good start

Haven't seen the red Q10 in person yet. Bet it is great looking! So you already have the new 06 tele zoom? WOW. They aren't in the USA yet. Lusting for it. Hear it could be in this week. Do you have any images from it yet? She got a super cool set up. To go from a cellphone camera to this is an incredible upgrade. You did great. Another photographer is born.
thanks

They're selling the 02+06 kit someplace? Wow. The 06 has not hit the shelves here in the US yet. Sounds like the 18-55 + 55-300 combination that is a great deal on the K camera lineup.

Really want that 06 Telephoto. The red leather case is nice too and would look good on my white Q. Been eyeballing them on eBay but they usually go for about $65 not including shipping which is bit steep IMO.

lol@the viewfinder being as big as the lens!

the red looks really good.

Thanks, but photos taken with the 06 zoom would also be nice to have!

There are some in this set. (He doesn't seem to tag his images, but he writes "06 terephoto zoom" in the title.) At the moment, the first 9 and possibly others are with that lens.

And then some other people tag theirs.

Wow those images look very good from that lens.

Agreed! Will most likely be getting that lens by the end of the year.
