Some of what the Swedish article says about the K10D is this: Pentax has created a strong compeditor for Canon, Nikon, Olympus and Sony - at long last. Whit the K10D Pentax is closing the gap/building a bridge over the class ravine between Canon/Nikon and "the rest" (My interpretation). The new K10D is loaded with innovative features never before seen in a DSLR system. Pentax finally got rid of the incomprehensible *ist-name. Dust removing mechanism. One of the best viewfinders in on market. There's a polaroid function - see the picture before you take it. Kalvin values (WB) can be set manually. 16 bit RAW-files. Better dynamics, less noise. Thus better JPEG's - less need for shooting RAW. 3.3 FPS (regarded somewhat low, but /perhaps explainable by the 22 bit colour recordings/larger files. Nice locks (pro-feel) for battery door and memory card door.

You may well be right. Please note, however, that those eight images are part of the first indented paragraph under the heading ThE lATEST cRiTERiON FOR PENTAX lENSES: SPEED. – follwed by the supersonic blurb. Then comes the second heading and the complete table. So my interpretation is typographically correct, although perhaps unduly optimistic in the near time frame. But the graphical people may have erred, of course. A different qwuestion is if it is likely that just those eight lenses will become DA* ones in due course. Does a macro lens really benefit from superfast focusing? Bertil > I looked at it carefully as well and I think you are right. None of > them were referenced as DA*. It sounds like the first two will be the > 16-50/2.8 and 50-135/2.8 in December. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net -- No virus found in this incoming message.
