Re: Samsung announces GX-L1

[Bertil Holmberg]

Have you noticed that the GX-1L specs differ from what would be  
expected from a pure *istDL2 clone?

"Designed to enable easy viewing of images in all lighting  
conditions, the GX 1L features a large, 2.5-inch LCD monitor (210,000  
pixels) and a bright, high-magnification pentaprism viewfinder  
offering a 96-percent field view."

Yes, pentaprism. That's *istDS2, not DL2, isn't it? A very different  
body. So maybe Samsung is already mixing and matching Pentax  
features, ne?

BTW, could the D2 have a larger sensor? Just cramming more pixels on  
the same sized silicon doesn't increse quality, does it? Just  
dreaming of greater use of my vintage lenses ;-)
