Could pentax do something better, like improving the AF?

Pentax have just announced an olive version of their entry-level DSLR, the Pentax K-m. Olive green must be the hip colour of 2009, as Leica have also released an olive version of their M8.2 digital rangefinder camera, dubbed the Leica M8.2 Safari Edition. Just like the Leica, the Pentax K-m Olive is also a limited-edition model, which comes bundled with a similarly painted smc Pentax-DA L 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 AL zoom lens. Only 1000 kits will be produced, with shipments commencing in October 2009 in Japan. Currently, there is no information on pricing or international availability.


Pentax K20D Titanium Colour Premium Kit

Pentax have just announced the Pentax K20D Titanium Colour Premium Kit. The K20D is Pentax’s flagship DSLR, boasting 14.6 megapixels, in-body Shake Reduction, a Dust Alert System and Live View in a weather-sealed body. The limited-edition Pentax K20D Titanium Colour Premium Kit consists of a K20D body and a D-BG2 vertical grip, both finished in titanium colour. Just like the Pentax K-m Olive, also unveiled today, the Pentax K20D Titanium will only be produced in a batch of 1000 units, with availability slated for October 2009. Pricing is to be confirmed, and it is unclear whether this limited-edition kit will be sold anywhere outside Japan.
