Oh my. Interchangeable focusing screens!

**LaurenOE** · 10-07-2013, 05:02 AM

AWESOME!!!!!

Three will be in my hands by the end of the year!!!!

Thank you Ricoh for not screwing up the K5 upgrade!!!!

(and now a great big sigh of relief).

I want to cry I am so happy that the K3 is a TOOL and not a TOY.

Looks awesome, except for that illogical 1/180th flash sync.

No language support for Tagalog or Visayan. The K-3 is a piece of junk!

Kobayashi.K · 10-07-2013, 05:34 AM

RAW DNG and PEF.
So, in the end they didn't abandon PEF. That's good.

Not announced on PF, DPR, etc...what's up?

topace · 10-07-2013, 05:38 AM

Is it just me, or do they shave off like .1x.1mm of the sensor every generation? We're going the wrong way!

Seems like a nice camera, though. Anyone see a date or price?

Multi pattern white balance? I wonder how that will work out.
