Pentax will never compete with the likes of Canon. Pentax is in a league of
its own. It must be a lonely.

Actually there are two of them, there's a S70 announced too. In black &
grey (nice colors). Seems that they're alternating them, last round it
was the G5 that was black and the S60 silver, now it's the other way round.

If you are shooting under light of the wrong colour balance, you use
a filter on the lens to correct the light.
However, the flash is then the wrong colour, so you filter the flash
