The bomb: 20fps burst mode. Unfortunately the german pamphlet is somewhat obtuse and either indicates that burst mode is 1.6MP only or that it maxes at 115 frames when 1.6MP is selected but can do lower framecounts at higher resolution.
Also the LCD can apparently be profiled, which is why Pentax went with it rather than the de-rigeur 3" LCD at its pricepoint (E1299 with the updated 18-55 II kit lens). -Adam And it's still 16-segment metering, not 19.
