Quoting "P. J. Alling" <webstertwenty...@gmail.com>:
If I had a stable of DA Limiteds or old primes, I'd be pretty
interested (pending price and specs). But all of my lenses are on the
larger size, and I don't have an overwhelming urge to get a smaller
camera body for the DA* 300/4.
Maybe it would interest me for that reason if it had an electronic
viewfinder, but it doesn't so it doesn't. As I said before, the
lack of eye level viewfinder is purely a money saving measure in
this case, and if I need to save that much money, I'd just buy a
K-r. This camera while not a major disapointment is not one I'm
likely to buy. Now if Pentax had built it along the lines of a
NEX-7 with a built in viewfinder, then at least I'd be interested in
looking at it.
I'm coming to a similar conclusion.
I was hoping that the K-01 might be a replacement for my K200D. I'll
still check it out when it hits the shops but without the viewfinder
I'll probably pass.
I simply can't understand why an optional external viewfinder hasn't
been made available if the 'designer' didn't want an in-body one.
