Originally posted by hut234 It would be quite offset though by those who sincerely feel it's a bad sign that a company can only put out a rainbow of color options and put that more front and center than more useful product updates. If they don't balance it by some serious (even minor) releases as well it only makes them look foolish to anyone except those who dress and act like the models in their ads. If it doesn't even rate the phrase "too little, too late" it does more harm than good.
Did anyone even buy any of the garishly colored K-x's? Here in the U.S. we didn't get the whole spectrum but apparently were offered Red, while and blue. Never, ever seen any of these in the wild here. Swing and a miss, strike...three and a half?
Eh, I don't quite follow you there. First of all, I am not sure what you mean by "serious" users, and what that has to do with the color of the camera. Are you saying that for example that you the serious user is always more serious of a photographer than anybody who has a goofy colored camera? Or, are you saying that people with goofy colored camera do not take better photographs than people who use camera with conventional colored camera? Are people who act and dress like models in their ads always stupid? I dated a girl in college who was a model and dressed accordingly and got into a better medical school than mine. I don't know which part of US you live, but if you don't see red k-x near where u live, then no where in US you will not see red k-x? I never had k-x, but at the time of its release there no advancement from the previous model?
I am sorry, but I cannot seem to connect dots here . . . .
