Default Why you shouldn't get a Pentax K20D!

Quote:
There are so many negative posts that are bashing the new K20D and that even though the camera is not out yet. Like the K10D, the new K20D will win numerous awards and it wouldn’t surprise me one bit if it was named camera of the year 2008 or 2009. So instead of listing what I would like the K20D to have, I listed what innovation the K20D offers and if you don’t like those innovations, the K20D is not for you.
Read here for all the reasons

Somehow it is like using Reverse Psychology to advertise for the K20D

But a lie told often enough becomes the truth.

* If you like to pay between $2,000.00 and $5,000.00 for a DSLR with about the same features as the K20D, but maybe with a smaller 10MP or 12 MP sensors instead of a 14.6 effective MP, you won’t be able to find a K20D at that price. You will have to spend about $1,299.00 U.S. to get a new K20D.
love this one

hi guys, any guesses on the price of the K20D with kit lenses?
i was planning to take on the canon 450D or 40D for better performance at high ISO but the price is rather STEEEPPPP!!
the K20D seem like a good competitor (based on it's specs and reviews of it's predecessor), overall, it' looks neat!

That's why i find that its Reverse Psychology.

Who in the right frame of mind would not get the cheaper and better product.

Sorry to hear that K10D didn't work for you. Well, hope you'd come back again when K30D or K1D come to the market
