Mark who?
I honestly don't mind the styling of the K-01, from a purely aesthetic point of view, i.e. ignoring functional issues such as the lack of a viewfinder.
But I
do mind the way Pentax slings that name Mark Newton or whatever around. It's in my face
all the time. Each and every advertisement, preview, review, display stand in stores, the works. Seems to me that every reviewer has been contractually obliged to promote that clown ahead of the damn camera itself.
Irrespective of its flaws, I am quite interested in the K-01. But I have no interest, not one iota, in the gomer whose signature is stamped on its baseplate.
