I like the principle of 3 alternative grips. Why? Because feel & fit is how I've recommended cameras to many people. That is, hold it and see how it works in your hand.
I'm a little confused about the Fx1, Fx2, Fx3. Or am I too out of touch with the new tech for those and the C1, C2, C3, Ch/Cl That delete button alternative function looks like a (video mode) crop, panorama, or compress maybe? It's definitely on the hobby/enthusiast side. That would explain the simpler/lighter-duty screen articulation. The front knob angle seems immaterial. Might be an individual preference thing. It does remind me of the Nikon Df. But it seems to represent, as noted, a style uniformity move as it borrows from the K1. I'd anticipate seeing more of this in the next few models. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
