Picture of the K-01

Adam · 01-29-2012, 11:05 PM

Could this be a photo of the upcoming K-01?

I saw someone post this on Pentax's Facebook page (in response to our World Pentax Day post).

Another clue that points a bit towards the boxy Hasselblad -look. This could be a really cool looking device!

yeah this definitely has the potential to be an awesome looking camera.

Adam · 01-30-2012, 12:11 AM

What if they went for a retro look like fuji?

Alizarine · 01-30-2012, 12:12 AM

Ah, marketing. XD

Yet another image... I do wish this one's one of the final designs though so we can have a higher possibility of it being the camera Pentax has been keeping under the covers before release. Just thinking since it's from China.... does Pentax have a factory there too?

Then Canikon may perhaps follow suit (just like how they followed with the colored SLRs?)

They kind already did, K-7/K-5 were retro looking and Q is "retro stile hipster love"

Adam,
Come'on and show us a full pict of that camera you have under your drawer

Philippos · 01-30-2012, 12:42 AM

And how can this deep curve on the right be from the digit "1". I have done a lot of graphic designing and I can hardly remember a typeface that depicts "1" in such a way.

IMHO it's either K-ONE or K-01.

*** (edit) OK, I just put my foot in my mouth (or keyboard) and went back to bed. Forgive me, I have a terrible cold with fever and I guess I am a little disoriented...

Get well soon! I hope you'll be fully recovered when the K-01 is official
