There is nothing in the specifications of the K-01 to indicate it is anything other than low-end. It has a similar sensor to the K-5, but everything else is closer to the K-r.
12-bit RAW, 3 exposure bracketing, one e-dial, front only IR port, ISO 100-25,600, etc.
The K-01 is not aimed at you, but that doesn't mean it doesn't have a market. Video and lens compatibility are it's primary selling points. IMHO it is aimed at the hipster who discovered photography with a thrift-store K1000.
