Well it's here, and it's ugly! So ugly it's kind of cute. The lack of a viewfinder kind of kills the fun for me personally, but the ability to use all the Pentax K mount lenses on it is pretty awesome. A big brick of a camera in depth, it has a solid rubber grip and cool retro controls on the top. You either love it or hate it, but one way or the other Pentax is making a statement. With a sensor that should be on par with the Canon 5DmkII and Nikon D700 beating Pentax K5 sensor this camera could be quite a performer too!
I love the new 40mm f2.8 pancake lens. It's small! And I always have dreamt of owning that
77mm f1.8 limited prime Pentax makes. It would be sweet on this camera. Am I going to buy it? No, probably not, but I applaud Pentax for thinking out of the box. Boring this is not.
