The *ist D is just an also ran with no sign of an unique Pentax design vision.
Although I can see that you're clearly unhappy, I'm just not sure what you expected Paal. Pentax was constrained by not enough market to buy a $4-5K Pentax. That kills full frame for now. The styling is that of an SLR. Ultraradical styling is really dangerous. Inevitably, more hate it than like it. What else could they have done? My point is that the *Ist D is pretty much what I expected. Was anyone just hoping for some unspecified amazing camera that just didn't materialize?
