Re: Pentax D10?

[Ryan K. Brooks]

This doesn't seem to credible to me. I'd buy one in a flash, but there's a lot of speculation on this full-frame foveon mystery camera.

Fingers crossed-

Hi,

I'm not evening going to speculate on wether this is correct or not. But it
would make send that this would be sold along with the DSLR which has
previousely been mentioned with the 'APS' sized sensor.

It would be similar to the Canon D60 and 1D combo and the Nikon D100 and
D1X/D1H combo. A pro and consumer version, maybe the one with the smaller
sensour would end up in a standard MZ body and the 10mp one in the MZ-S
body.

The rumors are getting pretty interesting.

I just heard one from a retailer about a "Pentax D10" that

will employ a

full frame 10 megapxiel Foveon sensor(no typo - full frame 10

meg

foveon). The individual even claimed to see a spec sheet- 3

FPS, JPG and

RAW recording, multi color space selection, and expected

retail of

..err..$4,999 (I find this price hard to believe). According

to him

Pentax will steal the spotlight at PMA and drop 2 bomb shells

that will

give Canon and Nikon and Kodak a serious run for the money.
