In which issue?

The K-5 was on the front cover. Maybe the mags sent to subscribers has a different cover. They have been known to do that !!

It had to have been the March issue. I read the whole magazine at my local Barnes and Noble. I was suprised that it was on the stand so early.

The reviewer raved about how rugged the camera was as the NYC area has been indunated with many snow storms and cold. A 16-50 WR was used as the main lense.

They gave it a four and a half star rating, a first for Pentax.

They also reviewed the new 35mm. f-2.4 lens and found that it was nearly as good as the 35mm. f-2.8.

My mistake, I didn't even check what month the issue was. I realise it must be the April edition, not March?
