FTR, Ogl practically accused Ricoh Imaging of lying in their specifications:
Originally posted by ogl We don't even know if K-70 has such AF system in the reality...
In other words, saying that official information:
"By incorporating a hybrid AF system — which harmonizes the advantages of a contrast-detection AF sensor and an image-plane phase-matching AF sensor — the PENTAX K-70 assures responsive, high-accuracy autofocus operation during Live View shooting using the LCD monitor."
might be a lie.
This is no mere "the number of on-sensor PDAF points should be in the specifications". Ron, you're trying to hide the extent of Ogl's accusations, combining that with name calling...
By the way, they do say there are 35 AF areas (in the user manual); the Sony A600 has 179 AF points and 25 AF areas so even if it is the same sensor, there are some implementation differences.
