Looks like the official page has been taken down..... Getting the "ERROR: 404 Page Not Found!"

i think the only disappointment, and still one very relative , is the x sync speed...the rest seems amazing.
we have to see the predictive af how it works and the IQ, but pentax has raised the bars in the APSC and micro third world i think, and even FF camera considered, only the best have these spec. i mean the d800 canon 6d nikon d600 all have much worst spec, only the canon 5d3 have better spec and the d4 and 1d series.

I'll hold any excitement/disappointment until I see some IQ tests and the AF has been challenged.

Pricing will be in line with the K-5 II. Count on it.

tzrenz0 · 10-07-2013, 06:48 AM

Can someone post a screen shot of the page that has been taken down?

Isn't English the other main language of the Phillipines? I do see your point.

I was just kidding LOL.

The fact that the page has been taken down
AND
Adam has not posted an official thread in the forum or homepage
AND
that there are no official announcements on DPR
SUGGESTS
that the media embargo has not been lifted
AND
that some of the specs that we are poring over may not be final.

bobmaxja · 10-07-2013, 07:25 AM

It's call creating BUzz. I Think Ricoh is better that Hoya at this

Maybe they did it on purpose and the final specs are nothing like this!! It's a decoy!

I wonder if the first product shots with Ricoh on the back was fake just to upset the crowd or the Ricoh logo was added late just to the production run?

They are good at generating buzz. Anyone that know if the buzz is spread outside the pentax sphere? Any members on other brands forums here?
