TechRadar Reviewed the Pentax Q

That's really fast, but they have done it, for the first review for a production unit of the Q!

http://www.techradar.com/news/photography-video-capture/cameras/hands-on-pentax-q-review-1007748

ISO resolution tests, Dynamic Range (DR) tests, for both JPEG and RAW, with results against the G12, GF3 and NEX-C3, colour responses with different image modes, and with a lot of full test images and a few samples.. Go explore and check for the results yourself, you will be surprised!

They did not test the video part, though. Otherwise, I think the test could be more complete and should be better.

Decent work by Techradar. Dynamic range is the big surprise for me, the JPEG engine looks good, too. In the right hands, shooting RAW, it seems the Q will be more capable than people have been expecting. If it was $500 I'd pre-order, but for now I'll sit back and see what Pentax brings on Oct. 6.
Tech radar did say they expect to do a longer test.
saw some samples on photography blog and the raw images really good...GOOD THINGS COME IN SMALL PACKAGES.
which pictures are so good???? for the time being, i keep my k100d.... still best quality / price ratio... For small camera, I'd choose a Sony NEX3 or
I would rather prefer a K-5 with only 10 Mpixels but higher dynamic range and lower noise, not to mention a FF K-5 to fully enjoy my old Pentax glass..
