I'm so glad that Pentax finally came out with the digital SLR! I think I'll be checking with my favorite online retailers daily awaiting the moment when I can finally pre-order the first one!
A note on the other side of the coin though . . . why are they making a brand new camera which is capable of gigabit flash cards, and then only support USB 1.1? I know the argument that you can remove the flash card and put it in a reader that's USB 2.0, but COME ON!
IL Bill, who can't wait to start using his 500/4.5 on the new *ist D
P.S. Since the film sensor isn't standard 35mm (IIRC), what's the multiplication factor?
