Request for Kx review

Imaging Resources is perhaps the most detialed review site and they are generally favorable to Pentax. I would like to see a Pentax K-X review and have started a thread in their forum to requst such a review.

It would help if others pile on to this thread....A review by popular demand. see here

I think its because someone already even mailed IR asking this, and IR responded that they are still waiting for the camera to ship and start reviewing it as soon as they get it.

Since i knew this and probably others who have red that older topic aswell, i felt that there is no need to contribute to such topic since the IR has been contacted directly, and are aware of the interest in this camera.

Probably it would be more appropriate to address Pentax'es marketing division for not providing proper support (latest cameras and lenses) to such extensive, popular and basically free advertisers (those big review sites are almost like having few page article in a photography magazine).

Still, many are just photographers and are happy as long as the thing works, and may not care much about rising the brand popularity and such internet stuff.

I think if DP, IR and the others want to be in the review business, then they can get their own cameras.

Bump. I think we need to put some pressure on IR to review the K-x. I see many people looking for a KX review from the more credible sites...

It would help if others pile on to this I started in IR Pentax forum...A review by popular demand. see here:
