He is so-o-o conservative in his views.

E.g. regarding colors: Com'on, bring REAL COLORS, not the dull blue
(it didn't go well because it is so dull, not because it is blue),
but BRIGHT, CLEAR colors: e.g. bright spring green would go well!
Japanese colors are so much more cool.

A few years ago Mac got a large advantage while offering it's colored
computers in contrast to the grey-beige essentially colorless PCs.

... and the journalisti (?)  needs to learn how to 
a) conduct interviews (as opposed to reading questions from the paper
and collecting the answers, acknowledging ye, ye, that's interesting),
and 
b) to speak properly  when not reading the questions
verbatim (eh-eh-eh-eh, , be - e.g. around 4:30).

I don't know why he didn't mention all the other colors that are
offered on the pentax site:
http://www.pentaximaging.com/slr/
There's pink, and a bright green (the shade you seek?), and a bright
blue... along with olive and chocolate...

And, yes, the interviewer could have done more listening  less
speaking over the interviewee...

ROTFL.  I thought you were talking about the sensor and images, not
the color of the camera.  At least we got the olive body.  That's a
fairly popular choice in the camo-happy US.

  They'd probably sell a ton of them if they made licensed Real Tree 
camo ones.

Yes, I agree completely.  I suspect the Japanese just don't get that.

I wonder if Ned gets teased about his name in Scotland. People asking if he has 
a brother named Chav and all that.

Igor, the guy is Israeli, it is typical interviewing behavior here. So,
