You forgot antigravity, cloaking and time travel.

Antigravity is part of the new SR and astrotracer technology. So now the new Pentax can make an stabilized exposure for near-infinite time. The camera can be air suspended while is exposing in anti-gravity mode, but this function drains a lot of battery.
Time travel can be used when you lost a precious moment, the camera can take a pic up to 90 secs 'back in time'.

You missed out the most important spec for Pentaxians:

MRSP $295.00

Which somehow will still manage to convert to 1599€

It's not even Astrotracer from now on, it's Stratotracer. The reason for the delay of the 70-200/4 is that it will come with TTL-JET and it's difficult to fit the fuel tank. This lens allows the camera to thrust into space to replicate the K10D's flight, shoot from 35 km height to avoid the influence of air, then flip the bird at the Hubble on the way down.

The landing, of course, will be handled by the moon-lander gear on the LCD. The writing was on the wall with the K-1!

So, we went from being a photography/camera forum to a chemistry one?

Then, I'm out... because according to my extensive chemistry knowledge, when you mix water with kitchen salt you get hydrochloric acid and caustic soda.
And that's what we're using for picked cucumbers, which we'll eventually eat.

Isn't it the other way around? Strong acid + strong base --> salt + water.

in this case: [H3O+ + Cl-] + [Na+ + OH-] --> [Na+ + Cl-] + 2H2O

It gets hot, that's for sure!

And who likes hot pickles?

I mean, spicy pickles are good, but hot ones don’t sound appetizing...

The mystery button is the "Dr. Who" button that takes you into the important times in recent history that take place in London, and automatically takes the picture. The only issue is that you get photobombed by 13 or so random guys.

Shall I put a respirator the next time I boil salt water to prepare pasta?

I heard the new APS-C has these features already built-in... haven't you seen the prototype yet?!

---------- Post added 10-18-19 at 09:23 AM ----------

If the K-2020 doesn't come with attachments for salt n' pepper shakers then I'm jumping ship to Canikon.
These features have come standard since the 1840s!

Extensive? Perhaps. Accurate? Doubtful.
