check, see the setting U1, u2 ...
I don't care that some people think the top LCD has outlived it's
usefulness, I use it all the time.
Likewise, I hate using the back screen to check my settings.
I think the placement of the shutter button especially with the addition
of optional deep hand grip is a step backward, so is the optional deep
hand grip, which limits the battery capacity, the body is still thick
pushing the mirror box way out front, might as well have a comfortable
integrated grip for the larger battery capacity.
I never noticed it at the time, probably because I was used to it, but
with the full grip hand grip the LX shutter button is awkward compared
to the placement of the shutter button on the K-5.
The battery looks like the same battery used in the K-50 so a step back
in power, making the optional battery grip much less of an option.
D-li 109, same as in a whole bunch of cameras, since IIRC the K-r. At
least they aren't coming up with a new battery standard. This camera
seems to be optimized for small size.
The front dial placement seems to be a awkward as well.
I think so too, especially if you'll be switching back and forth.
I expect that it will have some fantastic specifications seriously
nobbled by the power requirements of a too small power cell.
It just means that you'll only get a few hundred frames per charge.
I wonder if I can get a good deal on a used K-3, though it doesn't look
like it. K-3s seem to be cold dead hands cameras.
I'm sure you can. A lot of people with K-3s moved, or are moving to, K-1s.
I wonder what the

button on the upper left is.
It has no GPS and no wifi, but it does have a flash.
The WR lens implies that it is weather sealed.
It seems as if they are abandoning the high end APS market and are going
for a really nice low end APS DSLR.
