It seems dpreview says the *ist DL2 ios tthe Pentax version of the Samsung GX-1X. I used to believe it was the other way around! dpreview:
Pentax *istDL2 Pentax has announced a minor upgrade to the *istDL - but only for users in Asia and Canada. The *istDL2 offers a couple of extra focus points, a few new scene modes and a couple of bits of silver plastic (where the DL was all-black). Looking at the spec the DL2 appears to be the Pentax version of the Samsung GX-1S, announced earlier this month, and may be an indication of the intention to sell the future cameras as Pentax branded in some markets and Samsung cameras in others (namely Europe and the US).
