Doesn't look like a new AF unit though, spec sheet on the back says SAFOX VIII+. Looks like this will remain Pentax's weak point. Note everything else on the sheet is comparable to the D300s and 7D except possibly the video capability. The Sensor looks insane, ISO 51,200? -Adam -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
