Hoping its secretly mirrorless or something noteworthy. Otherwise, meh. Some people think it might have a touch screen. Still no flip screen though. I get the feeling this camera will have some new to pentax technology inside. Shame its not very easy on the eyes from the front. Look on the bright side. At least we aren't hasselblad fanboys. ;)
