Good overview.
Finally heard the shutter sound - seems nice and quiet.

There's now a special site for K-1 up on pentax.com : PENTAX K-1 Special site | RICOH IMAGING

I've noticed 2 suspiciously looking unmarked lenses in one of the picures there that my guess is are prototypes of upcoming primes...

Referring to AA filter simulation.

Pentax K1 fullframe - first opinions.... | CI Photocommunity

I was watching the Clinton Camera review on YouTube last night on our TV and my wife actually stopped her reading to watch it. She likes the screen and the lights and she is still happy with her K5, actually she would most likley still be happy with her K10D if she had not dropped it. My wife is not the kind of customer a company wants, she buys once and is satisfied until it does need to be replaced. I am not much better as still very happy with the K5IIs and the only way that I could justify getting the K1 is by selling the Hasselbad system and that is not going to happen.

I also watched two other videos but cannot remember where they were from, searched for Pentax K1 and they came up along with lots for the K-01 which I also watched as I have on the way to me right now.

Exciting times for Pentax and Pentax users, even those of us who are sastisfied with our current cameras and lenses.
