Flashes of flesh from fingers and feet frequently frustrate fish-eye fiends.

I just got informed that Pentax Q firmware 1.12 has landed on the (internal) European Pentax servers. So it shouldn't take long till it is available to the public.

I bought a K-01 recently, with the two kit zooms. Also have a Pentax-A 28mm f/2.8, and a Pentax-A 50mm f/1.4... both of which work perfectly with their aperture rings on A, using manual focus of course.
The kit zooms are surprisingly sharp, stopped down a little, and very good value for the money. Their AF is just fine, more than fast enough for me, indoors or out.
I haven't tried 'Tracking AF' yet... I use spot focus. If I had to take pictures of kids in motion, i'd get them outdoors in sunlight. Otherwise, indoors, just wait til they sit still for a moment. But it will also take a continuous burst of JPGs and something will work out.
Have had no problems at all with auto focus.
I'm an amateur photographer, retired now. Took pictures as part of my job for years. I can tell you, the K-01 is a better camera than we will ever need. I have two rough tests for image quality -- a picture of a grass lawn ( are the blades of grass sharp and distinct? No smearing?) And a picture with a lot of clear blue sky (any speckles? Noise?). The K-01 is just great, best digital camera I've ever used. Amazon today, US $478 with the two kit zooms, $300 body.
