I managed to read all the posts because for many of them I had to try hard
First of all I’m glad that Pentax did a “walk around” for the camera explaining what you would see under glass at the CP+ had it been organized. Explaining external characteristics gave me the first really great information about the wonderful OVF!
In a world that MILCs are pushed by most companies, I love it that Pentax differentiates by improving the DSLRs’ main characteristic even more! These guys are really know what they’re doing.
Now the words liveliness and dynamism about the K-new character are exactly those two that are missing from the K-1 philosophy. It will be the greatest complimentary camera for my K-1 for covering every photographic situation and as I’m a sport and nature oriented shooter, I will definitely buy one as soon as it hits the selves
Concerning our PF and many childish reactions and opinions I read about the K-new without knowing the specs yet, I feel that many members are trying to cover their inability to buy it or justify its usefulness for their style with irrelevant cons that hold them away from another bad Pentax product... it’s obvious and quite ridiculous guys! Come on we are grown ups, speak the truth. Thumbs up for those few that included comments like “I won’t buy the camera but I want to express my opinion anyway” and even more credits to those polite members that went a long way saying they probably shouldn’t comment on something they aren’t interested in. I love to read their viewpoints on the contrary to those bashing the new camera cause they can’t get (or they don’t want it).
I’m sure everyone would jump up from joy like a kid if they were given the camera, but they pretend the situation is different! I will wait for the first member to comment it was a mistake that he/she participated in the give away for the new camera and had he knew how inferior this K-new was to his/her K-3, K-5 or any other previous member of the family, he wouldn’t have been one of those hundreds who put effort and qualified to win it. He gets the prize
