Haha, I'll have to wait even longer... I will aim for the 18MP medium format one ... if I have the money

Meanwhile, enjoying my 6MP K100D and hoping to see pics from others who will soon own the 10MP K10D

I knew it!!

The subtle advertisements in Digital Life, Stuff Magazine Singapore and HardwareMag for the past few weeks... it's a conspiracy.

If the price follows closely to the one in US, i will definitely buy! (US$999 for kit; US$919 for body). In fact, it should even be cheaper, as shipping from their Vietnam facility to here is closer maa.

However, if they mark up above 20%, then i will just wait longer or get myself a D80 and that will be bye-bye forever to Pentax.

Now to those who are happy with your current Pentax, DON'T BUY the K10D!
Let me have a copy 1st!!! This is my 1st DSLR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That guy took photo of a Cathay Photo salesman!

I wonder how much he paid for everything to get the K10D in?

He appears to be a non-local, and was at Cathay Photo buying a DA 21mm, as it is not in his equipment list.

K100D is also 2/3 the feature of D80 and 1/2 the feature of D200
K10D on paper looks more superior than D80.
