Interesting review, aimed to the photographer.
(but a brick wall could not fail...)
Well, just to say that my experience with Pentax digital is very good indeed. I think that since the K20, the brand got it pretty much spot-on and never stopped to improve.
Surprisingly, I find myself liking the Pentaxes more than the Canons and saying that a 35mm FF is still missing in their product's line, but their cameras are just right.
They are not exciting but deadly efficient, easy, as the reviewer said, you just forget about the gear.
They are not made to dream but to take pictures in the more direct way. In short, no hassles.
It's very simple: if Pentax would come with a 35mm FF I would stop immediatly to use any Canon. But they don't so I thank the 5D2.
I find the Pentax politics very healphy: the same treatment for all their products. Just looking at the 645, it is an inflated K7 or K5. So costs are reduced.
And this lcd...they finally did it! Sure that it will force the big MF boys to bring a decent lcd very soon.
It seems to be a great product, and considering the crisis panorama, it might give nightmares to others very soon. Because if they hardly listen to the claims in all the world's forums, they will listen beleive me to the sales curves.
The only downside to me is that it does not have the flexibility of the backs and this is very important IMO. Just for that reason I won't personaly look after it.
