  • Yup, I too bought it as a 'between upgrade' camera, but love it all the same. Still don't get why people dislike this camera, it's fantastic! I even love it's looks. It is certainly built for prime...
  • Replied in uh oh
    Yeah, looks like a complete failure to me. Don't know about others, but I love the K-01. Great IQ, simple easy menu, feature packed, and yes a well built, great looking camera. Nice Shots.
  • Ah, yeah, cameras ARE actually more complex than guns. Don't know if you've ever taken either apart before, but see if you can put your entire camera back together in less than 20 seconds.

  • Nice shots! Still amazed at what the Q can achieve in the right hands. I seem to have two left hands...
  • Ergonomics, Small size WR Build Quality and Feel Massive range of features (many cameras don't have in build interval shotting) In cam stabilization Small quality Primes IQ
  • Saw this guy up at the cottage. Don't know what it is, but rather interesting all the same, especially since his antennae grow out of his compound eye. Anyone have an idea?
  • Ah... forgot about the whole 14 bit/ 12 bit thing. And I had been wondering whether the k-01 sensor was processing the files more efficiently.  Thanks for all the replies and clearing up my...

    No Pentax Q? I would've thought it would be in there for sure. Perfect for kids to play with... small size and now in a range of colours!

  • I was curious to know if anyone else would like see Pentax add a  28mm lens (ltd  or otherwise) to the future lens line up. I really like the FOV on digital, and of course it's great wide angle on...
  • Thanks for the tip EArenz! Just pulled the trigger and bought one. Now I have a spare body for adapted lenses.
  • I managed to get the flash firing once, in Slave Mode fitted to the Q. But then you have to switch it off, then on again. Not much use really. Tried nearly every combo of flash on/off on body and...
  • Thanks for the reply Scott. Unfortunately I tried that and still no joy. All firmware (cam and lens are up to date). The flash works well on my k20d, just not sure why it ain't working on the Q...
  • Hi, I have an Pentax AF500 FTZ flash, but the Q fitted with the 8.5mm lens doesn't seem to want to fire it. What settings should I be using? Am I missing something? Will that flash work with the...
