The box and package is in the same style and uses the same material as the WG series of digital cameras of Pentax.

MX-1, the first "Pentax" camera that ever made in Indonesia.

The lens is what we can find in Olympus XZ series of DCs, for exactly the same specification and outlook. Btw, I don't think it matches well enough with the elegant bronze metal body of the MX-1.

The flipped mon. is awesome, though, especially when it can be found in a *Pentax* camera! :-o
As for the ISO test, it can be seen that the noise shows up more obviously starting from ISO 800 and up, whilst image details and colours are still good up to ISO 1600. Colour noise starts to show more clearly from ISO 1600 and ISO 3200 is not that usable IMO after all.

No it isn't ...
The lens is not the same as in Olympus ZX-2. This convergent evolution not inheritance. Both cameras use the same (sized) sensor and decided on the same focal length range (which is a round number 6 to 24mm for 4x zoom range starting at 28mm eq).
Olympus has 6 aspherical elements and in-lens IS. Pentax has 4 aspherical elements with in-body IS. The Olympus maximum aperture is larger at larger focal lengths.

The lenses are the same. You are getting bad information from unreliable sources. You need to stop reposting the same bad information EVERYWHERE on the internet.
I don't understand some Pentax shooters who have this napoleon-small-man-syndrome. Always trying to play things up to compensate for God-knows-what.

gonna start knocking my neighbor's door to found out where the heck they kept the factory hiding
seriously.. i travel a lot and no sign of pentax factory here there or anywhere ... unless they really keep it under stealthy bunker
could it possibly mean they're assembling FF camera there too so nobody would notice?
ah well.. i better start looking before they start to sell it 150% normal price.. as usual

One has to presume it is made alongside the MX-1 in an OEM factory.
