Ummm ... doesn't the current DS have a 95/95 viewfinder? Doesn't it also offer an 8 frame burst?
I suppose other differences between the DS and the DS2 will show up considering these are early, and probably PR generated, comments. The B&W filter may be nice, but I suspect it's only a desaturated version of a regular file rather than something special. Still, contrary to Paul's position, I like the idea that Pentax has come out with another model that offers even slightly different features. When you stop to consider how many "subtle" variations there are on base cameras, Pentax's choice to make a few changes and release a camera now makes more sense than not releasing anything until a major upgrade is ready. Like Bruce, I also feel it shows the company is a live and kicking, and, iirc, the opening price for this puppy is less than the opening price was for the DS.
