want! I really hope the tethering is rich in features.

Looks great.

This is a fantastic video that highlights some great points in the camera.

nice video.

Great promotional video, however I think if it had ended with...this promo was fully recorded with a Pentax K3 I think that would have really gave it that extra mile of wow factor. K3 has professional video capabilities ...but not enough to do this kind of thing is what's left in the back of my mind. Missed opportunity, but maybe I'm just being picky.

- Edit I looked at the actual youtube link and it does say K3 was indeed used for the video. I think the video itself should promote it thou.

Oh yeah, that's a good point. If the k-3 was used for that whole shoot, that's pretty amazing. I didn't realize it was the k-3 because there wasn't a credit line at the end.

However, that is impressive - a full commercial done with the k-3, about the k-3.

Hoping that the Flu is as good as it looks on this promo video...

I'm seeing that flucard as a bonus. But if it works well...might end up using it even more...

At 100$, the bonus is for you or for Ricoh?

Well, in the other hand, you don't pay for WiFi in camera so you have the choice to pay for it... or not

Personnaly, I just ordered my K-3!

Indeed, I was just pulling his leg!

Excellent video - I like this style of promotional stuff which show real photogs at work with the gear. And it looks like he was getting good results out of the K-3.

It's a bit funny though that in this video Ricoh are promoting the benefits of tethering, despite Pentax only offering grudging support for tethering over recent years.... Maybe now Ricoh will also work with Adobe to enable tethering in Lightroom.

What brand radio trigger was he using, BTW?
