They forgot to put a mirror and a pentaprism and the OVF protruding just above the phone screen. Pfft, rubbish...!

Thich Quang Duc died on June 11th, 1963, not 1968. This June was the 50th anniversary.

While the article certainly refers to sites like DPR, how your comment has any to do with that?

But you have 4 exclamation marks at the end!!!!

Seriously though, fanboy-ism we encountered as well long before the internet and I think they're meant to live on. As long as there are products and...

The yellow fish is on all three reviews, Olympus, Nikon and now Panasonic! You had a contract or something with this pro? :)

Great reviews all three, BTW.

Great, personal attacks. Run out of arguments eh?
We are talking about a camera and I'm pointing out why I believe it was a failure. If you like it so much, that's great, it's not a bad camera,...

leschnyhan, just wanted to make it clear. Clarified now, thanks.

peevee1, granted, but highlight clipping? The least this sensor has to worry about.

Let's say that I'd buy the K-30 (back then). It came in more colors too.

But seriously, I said that this is a great idea, and back then when it was originally announced, I was very positively...

I'm old enough to have the wisdom not to. You probably stopped reading before the point when I say that I have been using a Pentax for a long time. Nice knowin'ya, kiddo.

Re-posting an answer of mine from below, why do I think this is a failed product:

1. Because there are others who can do better.
2. Because Pentax could do better.
3. Because its lifespan measured...

1. Because there are others who can do better.
2. Because Pentax could do better.
3. Because its life span measured months (except for Japan, apparently).
4. Because hardly a year after...

Not the same sensor as Fuji. Fuji builds its own sensors. You're correct on the Nikon and SONY though.

OK, OK, no need to shout!

I don't get it. People feedback was that they wanted a blue-white camera or just the K-01 back? Or did Pentax, failing to see why the product failed (pun), asked 'what if it was blue-white? would...

I would think that the pixels, being so small and so dense (and so many), will have no issue identifying the slightest tilt in a seemingly horizontal subject, as long as it's reasonably big to see...

@T3
Nikon has no GPS on any of it's cameras yet it's behind Canon in sales. While the FF 6D has both built-in GPS and wireless. Is Canon so desperate to outsell Nikon in the entry level FF market?...

It's very confusing that comments are possible in both the announcement and the preview! Make it for one or the other so we are able to keep track of our posts and dialogues and not having to click...
