I'm pretty sure Newson had a lot to do with the control layout and user interface, too, because it's very good. (It's not for nothing that Apple just hired him.) You're right about the buffer, though. It does seem smaller than the K-5. >They missed a bet by not including a EVF either tucked into the body, >(there looks like there was plenty of room for it though that would have >taken a redesign of the steel frame), or as an extra add on, but I've >said that before. There is absolutely no way they could have added an electronic viewfinder. It's amazingly densely packed. In fact, it still surprises me how heavy it is for its size every time I pick it up. And if they could have added an EVF it would have increased the price, which was the main issue with this camera. -- Mark Roberts - Photography & Multimedia www.robertstech.com -- 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.
