Re: Just got notification from B&H about the new Pentax cameras.

No, not for that camera. I keep daydreaming of a Q-Pro or Q-Limited with controls laid out for an enthusiast, rather than a casual snapshotter, and higher quality lenses. That one would need an EVF. In my daydream the EVF replaces the built in flash and pops up/folds out when needed. Paul Ewin

The only concern is that full frame DSLR with Minolta like AS is not quite possible. Yours regards, Alan Chan http://www.pbase.com/wlachan I agree there is information there. What's esp intriguing are the new 35mm (non-aps) lenses. Its a stretch, but me thinks that it might be a hint that the

Re: New Pentax cameras
