Replied in Good thing? You sure?
With Pentax taking control of all camera design, aren't you afraid the Ricoh P&S digicams will end up having the same awful noise reduction of Pentax P&S digicams?
Or that the Ricoh GRX modules...

Replied in Retro trend.
Simply put: it's got a better look. Just like the Fuji X100 and X-Pro1, Olympus hopes to generate some interest from older shooters with a digital mirrorless camera that looks like the product they...

Replied in Yeah - I'm sure that Nokia Smart phone
Well, most smart phones don't have semi-auto or manual exposure and other features unique to advanced compact, bridge and DSLR cameras, so it's not exactly like comparing a D800 with a 645D.
And...

Replied in Wow!
Talk about detail. Looks awesome!
With such resolution, AF accuracy becomes paramount. And while AF ain't very accurate at very wide apertures, I never was able to trust either of my two Pentax...

Replied in Very serious competition.
At $7,000 less, the D800 rocks!
Take in account the better flexibility (possibility to capture both stills and HD video, better high ISO performance, much more accurate and faster AF) and the...

Replied in Nope.
Selling my K-7, K10D and lenses soon, as the D800 is on its way. This means the D700 might be on rebate soon. Even if it's not, I'll go for it.
The D7000 or D800E will follow later on, depending...

Commented on HDR used properly is appropriate for photojournalism, says Unified Color's Omvik news story
Good point. But then, recovering details in shadows and in highlights in post-processing (using some fill light adjustment, for instance) can easily result in a look similar to that of HDR....

Commented on HDR used properly is appropriate for photojournalism, says Unified Color's Omvik news story
Good point! I sometimes do HDR imaging for clients when faced with harsh illumination and when fill flash can't be used (when I need to photograph a building on an overcast day, for...

Commented on HDR used properly is appropriate for photojournalism, says Unified Color's Omvik news story
The fear is that a Pandora box will be opened if HDR processing is allowed in photojournalism. I believe this fear is not justified. HDR is not retouching as in using Photoshop to remove visually...

Replied in You got it right.
Well, it's a very little bit smaller. ;) But yeah, the difference is too slim to be a major or even an interesing selling point.
Well, the AF could be improved if they do with the K-01 what...

Replied in Agreed!
An larger, K-mount, /Q/-like mirrorless camera would've been awesome. That's something they nailed just right with the /Q/: its great design.

Replied in Pentax K-01: that's what you get when you hire a chair designer.
Agreed, take that part away and it looks better already.
I think the best term available today is MILC. Mirrorless interchageable lens camera. But that is another debate.

Replied in Pentax K-01: that's what you get when you hire a chair designer.
Same here.

If photography can be considered like painting, then I'm still at the preschool "paint with your fingers" level.

Replied in Design is NOT the looks, but the whole essence of a product
Agreed. But what if people fail to put the K-01 in their hands because they dismiss it from the start as a result of its poor looks?
Design is indeed looks /and/ function. A design sofa is no...

Replied in By the way...
Strange you mention this, because I was actually thinking of the Aztec SUV when I saw the K-01. Not really /that/ bad looking, but not appealing either. ;)

Created thread Pentax K-01: that's what you get when you hire a chair designer.
Well, rumors said the K-01 would be ugly.
Looking at the designer's other work on his website before the pictures of the K-01 got leaked, I thought Pentax would come up with a real good looking...

Replied in Considering Pentax - What is best high quality everyday zoom?
It depends on the lens quality assembly. Water has a lesser chance of getting inside a lens with a tight fit than in a lens with wobbly parts and with 1/2 millimeter gaps between the focus (or...

Replied in Get a D700, D3S or D4 ... D800 will likely be 36 Mpix.
The D800 will be 36 Mpix, IMHO.
The D700 is not as good as D3s, but is similar to D3. Some rebates might be available when the D800 is released and the D700 is discontinued. And for the price of...

Replied in Considering Pentax - What is best high quality everyday zoom?
Unless you need the weather sealing, go for the 17-70mm F/4. If you can live with a shorter tele end, the Tamron 17-50mm F/2.8 (non-VC) is sharp and has decent image quality.
