J-Limited 01 + HD DFA 50mm f1.4 + Sanada Himo Strap



As posted on Twitter by the J-Limited designer TKO.
I have seen other pictures of the red K-1 II. It looks great.
I also like the White one too.
I enjoy my silver K-3 III and my silver KP. But my Red K50 would like to have a brother.😊
It would be nice if they could be custom ordered like the K50 was.

Takumichi Seo unboxes and starts using the Project Roses J01 to photograph roses, of course.

My {blue} K-30 body shows less wear than my {back and silver} KP body {3 years newer} does.
I wouldn't worry too much about durability as long as it is treated with the care due any camera.
At the event, they said that some of the colors are the same as the K-30, but that there is an extra layer of coating on the J-Limited 01 to give it extra lustre and durability. So there is probably no need to worry about it. Still, it's expensive and decorative and you'd be crazy to bash it about.

Having said that, I saw one KP J-Limited on the second hand market where the "Duratect" lens mount looked a bit worse for wear - not really earning its "Dura" prefix. I don't know if that7s a common issue.

My blue K-30 does look like a car finish, so I’d be the last one to criticize it.
