The pricing information I found on the Imaging Resource site indicated Samsung is listing the GX-10 the same as the K10D. Whether the street price is lower or not remains to be seen. Here is a quote: "More importantly, we have now received pricing information for the Samsung GX-10, which is slated to ship this October, just slightly before the K10D arrives in November. Pentax's pricing was revealed as $899.95 body-only, or $999.95 with the inclusion of a Pentax DA 18-55mm zoom lens as a kit. We now hear today that Samsung's pricing will be essentially the same - MAP (Minimum Advertised Price) of $899.99 body-only, or $999.99 in a kit with an 18-55mm lens." See the whole article here: http://www.imaging-resource.com/NEWS/1158859815.html I would not have a problem carrying a Samsung version of the camera if I knew that Pentax upgrades of the firmware could be applied. I trust Pentax would be more likely and faster to issue improvement via firmware. Does anyone know if the earlier Samsung rebadged cameras (DS and DL variants) took Pentax's updated firmware?
