Some interesting ideas. We're all aware that AF is slower with Pentax, but not in a visible way with newer lenses, oftentimes, and the AF
accuracy is among the best.

That's something I would love.
Originally posted by Sperdynamite 4) Get rid of the fluff. I don't need direct access to multiple color modes on the AF selector. Raw photos are raw photos. I personally don't need that in camera AT ALL, but if it must be there, why not be in the menu? Same with the filter modes, this is a pro camera. Get rid of em! What's with the outdoor view settings? I just want to be able to see my preview without having to change a brightness mode that seems to reset occasionally. Either implement an ambient light sensor or put it in the menu.
I agree that color mode should go in a menu, it's not something that's changed often. Even though not everyone shoots RAW.Filter modes are in the menus, where they don't bother anyone.
As for outdoors view setting, it's something that I use almost every day. Having a boost in brightness without compromising color accuracy is extremely valuable for me when outdoors. And when shooting astro/night scenes and wanting to see the colors (hence no red light mode) I often dial the brightness down.

Seeing as you claim to use only RAW, why do you care? You'll post-process the images anyway, and having more pixels available to control your final crop is useful.
