K-5 Will be Marketed Earlier (in Japan)

Here is what the DC Watch reports today:-

(in Japanese, machine-translated English page here)

The original K-5 on sales date was announced to be by fall October, whilst the K-r was told to be in mid-October. So, Pentax has been able to put the K-5 body on the market a bit earlier. But unfortunately, for the DA 18-135 WR DC, we still have to wait until mid-November.

I'm on the pre-order list for the K-5 here in Norway. No idea when it will be available though.
Here in France, each official Pentax vendors have received a couple of K5 (2/3 per store) for their best partners.
A 1st delivery will be in store tuesday 19 or wednesday 20 (a store in my town will receive 8 of these K5).

Waiting for your feedback guys... I'm gonna have mine on tuesday =)
(Fyi, I will get mine with 18-55 WR at 1249€ all charges and taxes included)

Congrats! My target is the 18-135 K-5 kit and particularly wished a Silver body. I shall wait and see if this new one-lens travelling zoom will have acceptable IQ or not, btw.
Demon - I bet that price was confidential and you just told everybody...
