Pentax Gets Awards for K-01 and WG-2



The K-01 is red-dotted (Google-translated) (official Red Dot page about their awards here) and also the Nikon 1, which is awarded as the "best of the best" (official Nikon announcement here) in the same category. There is no official news announcement at Pentax.jp for this, though. Anyway, I don't mind to publish this news for them.

Btw, I bet that one of the reasons for the K-01 to get this red dot award should be that it has a red dot (button) on the top of the camera! ;-)



Besides, the WG-2 is TIPA awarded, which is the only Pentax product which is on the TIPA award list this year, for 2012.

I like the design of the K-01. A lot of people don't. I'm attracted to 'designer' stuff and this got my attention straight away. Just wished it had a viewfinder.
My old company had a coffee espresso machine that's awarded the Red Dot Award.
That think spends more time being fixed that it's being used.
Red Dot probably just mean - hey they hired a designer to do the exterior.
