Yes. I was excited about the USB-3 when the K-3 was announced. But I found, in practice, it was still just easier to use the SD card in my USB3 reader. I suspect the reason they left USB2 in was that they would have had to change the bus or parts of it to accommodate USB3 speeds and did not find that worth the cost. I think it is interesting that parts of the camera were designed that long ago because USB 3 has been prevalent for quite a few years.

I was very excited about the USB 3 on the K-3. But once I had the camera I found that I almost never used it. Swapping cards is just so much easier. Since the K-1 will be able to use the 645 teathering software the transfer rate over USB 2 must be adequate. These ports never reach their published capacity anyway so it may just be that they have sped up the internal processing and bus to get fast enough output with USB 2.
