Memory doesn't serve these days like it used to so I'll just make this up as I go along. For my money - and it would be my money as I would be first in line to buy one - a K1D on sale this year (eg contemporary stats) would have to have as an absolute minimum: - 36X24 mm sensor with in the region of 20MP - a way better AF system than is included in the current lineup - what I would call 'pro-spec' * - 5 fps at full resolution, RAW - superior build quality, magnesium, carbon-fibre, unobtanium, whatever, plus seals - buffer size allowing at least a dozen RAW files before gagging, 40 LF jpegs - Price point 6000 USD approx That's bare minimum. That's hat eating time. The rest below are personal add-ons that would be great: - aperture control on older lenses - live-view articulated LCD capable of being folded away to protect screen - serious set of accessories such as angle finder, wireless combos - CF as well as SD compatibility - commemorative set of steak knives HTH -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ||=====| http://www.cottysnaps.com _____________________________ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
