Though you guys dumped Pentax already?


It's been talked about already:

And it won't be a Pro camera. Pentax doesn't have any plan to release any pro 135mm camera yet ...

Yeah ........... I dumped Pentax for her sister, Samsung but still carrying on the legacy .....

The K7D may be nearer than you think ....... according to some sightings in Austria and Germany......

Is the Samsung better to use than the K10D that you used before?

Beside above mentioned link, there has been series of leaked photos on this new Pentax camera. Based on all those rumors and photos, I'm sure something new is coming from Pentax but I'm not sure about its spec. The rumor has it that it'll have:

1. 35mm 1.3x crop sensor
2. New AF system
3. 5 fps
4. 720p video
5. 1/8000 max shutter speed.
