Re: What PENTAX Values Most in Future Cameras - more info on new APS-C flagship

I am very happy with my K-5, but am still looking forward to the K-new (as usual, I will wait a year before buying so that other people can identify the bugs). I would very much like an articulating rear screen, though. I have missed some close-to-ground-level macro shots because there wasn’t

Re: What PENTAX Values Most in Future Cameras - more info on new APS-C flagship

It depends on your vision of state of the art, as I've said, while I don't have anything against an adjustable rear screen, either the one on the back of the K-1 or the fully articulating screen on, K-70 and K-P, but, it is more fragile and therefor something else you can break, and I seem to

Re: What PENTAX Values Most in Future Cameras - more info on new APS-C flagship

All Pentax FF and APS-C DSLR cameras (and those of competitors) have a movable screen in 2020 and there is no reason not to have it for new models. I bet therefore that the final version of the new flagship will have it too. The two videos demonstrate that Ricoh/Pentax put so much focus on the

Re: What PENTAX Values Most in Future Cameras - more info on new APS-C flagship

I wouldn't mind mirrorless with its inherent light weight, but with all my Pentax lenses I'm hesitant to change brands. And it is so useful now to be able to switch lenses of FF and APS-C in the Pentax system without any converters. The K-1 is a perfect camera but not for carrying on long walks

I don't know, I think I'd buy it, a flippy screen is just something else to break, though I can see it's usefulness in some circumstances. The new Prism looks like it could be duplicated by just using a O-ME53 which I've been using since I got my *ist-Ds.  It's not perfect but it does give a

The button on the back on the left side above the panel shows no symbol or text. Perhaps it is attached to a spring for the panel to open. Selling a new top camera with a fixed panel will be a mission impossible. Henk Op 2020-07-22 om 15:16 schreef Pete McIntosh: At 20:21 in the 2nd video

There is a follow-up video from Ricoh/Pentax. The new APS-C is claimed to have a new penta-prism, improved grip, new shutter, better image quality and also a silver model (also for star lenses and K-1 mark II) No details on date of introduction. I still have no clue on whether the back LCD
