currently using the built in wireless flash option is very helpful and has saved me money not buying radio triggers.

it would be nice if pentax eliminated a built in flash in its professional models, and isntead had a built in radio transmitter and pentax-made affordable radio recievers... that would be awesome....

The lens is a DA lens, possibly the DA35 ltd?

Well, it's definitely not this. Since the green stripe is a DA signature, and is most likely the 35/2.8 Limited

I would guess this is that new DSLR that's coming out that is NOT a K20D successor. Interesting that some parts of it do resemble the X70 like someone said.

I had my hopes up for this

wowtip · 04-13-2009, 12:14 PM

Um, not to rain on anybody's parade, but it looks almost exactly like my K20D with the DA35 ltd attached, probably taken with a fisheye lens, which could account for the flash unit looking different.

The thing I can see that looks different is the slight bevelling below the flash. Hard to tell from that photo though.

Gooshin · 04-13-2009, 12:15 PM

where is the "HOOKER" button?

VaughnA · 04-13-2009, 12:15 PM

Now I could go for one of those. But I'd like to know how the Beer button would effect IQ and stability.

Note that the screw just above the RAW button on the K20 is moved one step forward, infont of the joint of the two plasic surfaces in the area.

K20D with DA35

Yes... hmm...

millertime · 04-13-2009, 12:31 PM

The lens is the DA 35mm Limited, Im holding mine right here and it looks exact. Camera def. isnt a KM, nor K20/K10 if you look at where the plastic fits together and where the screws are, though it is close to the K20

Am I the only one who is seeing all this excitement as somewhat depressing? I mean.....you'll likely be let down =P

It's not the kind of BEER button you're thinking of.
