Originally posted by Kunzite Well, it's not like they're holding back the new versions - it's either this, not adding features via firmware updates, or postponing the camera until it's "perfect".
I'm certainly not complaining, but if this is true, then that's (at least) two serious multi-factor upgrades in functionality within the first year - it just strikes me as a new approach - if they become known for it, then it's good marketing, but it means that the manual gets out of date quickly, even if the reviews are updated - so it has features not mentioned in the manual that comes with it, that new purchasers might not know about or be alarmed at (Dear Pentax Forums, my screen has gone red - how do I get this fixed!). Again, no complaints from me, just potential drawbacks for the approach.
