It's beautiful. I'd like to hold one, well any 645D, in my hand, and
shoot some shots. But really, there's no way it's remotely sensible.
645D vs K-5:
Pro:
- More pixels!
- Looks groovy (even in black)
Con:
- Thousands more
- Heavier
- Bigger
- Fewer lenses
- Less sensitive
- More pixels

Think of what folks spend on the appearance of their cars. A
relatively small set of what are essentially vanity upgrades to a
Porsche can run the entire price of a 645D. The enthusiast dentist
who has the money might like the red better.

I think it's cool. I remember when stuffy, traditionalist Hasselblad
released their cameras in screaming yellow leather and black chrome.
One of the prettiest SLRs I remember was an Alpa 10d finished in matte
gold with green or burgundy snakeskin leather coverings.
Nothing wrong with a little
I like it. Not sure if I would buy one, although I might if it were no more
expensive than basic black. Pentax' decision to put color on a high-end camera
is bold. It's already starting conversations. That's good marketing.
