Originally posted by dcshooter Well, considering that the K60 is described as having the same styling as the KL, which is described as "retro," I don't know how much stock I'd put in that rumor. Also, the body is significantly different from the K50, there is no mention of Wifi in the leaked specs, there's no indication of the AF specs, and there's no indication it is weather sealed (the "And still finish all times" is a mistranslation of "fully-weather sealed").
About the only verified similarity is the 20Mp sensor.
I take your point that there are some differences, but there are a few striking similarities too.
- The 20mp sensor matches K-S1 rumours
- It mentions a small grip
- It mentions multiple colour options (not a long-shot with Pentax, admittedly)
- It makes a point of mentioning that the "K600" doesn't have the redesigned back plate of the "K60" and "KL". The K-S1 clearly has a redesigned back plate.
I wouldn't describe the K-S1's design as retro either, but describing appearance is highly subjective. Besides, the external styling is something that could easily have changed in the intervening months. The internal specs would be more difficult to change.
