RiceHigh's Pentax Blog: The Pentax Coffins! >:-o

The Pentax Coffins! >:-o

The K-30 is in the Chinese style, for its top/head/front! :-o

On the other hand, the K-7/K-5 is in Western style! :-D

* All the pictures above are searched via Google Pics and linked directly to their respective web links as posted.

Now, I know why Pentax needed to hire Marc Newson to design the K-01! Otherwise, their own designers seemed to get no idea on what to do, so that they finally decided to copy ideas from something ordinary, which are yet much related to real-life! So, after all, as a Pentax user, would you prefer a "brick" or a "coffin"? Your take! Lol.. ;-p

Now i understand why Pentax made them dustproof - you can bury them.
(I know that all Pentaxians will hate me for this joke, but the invitation was just too good.) ;-)
But other manufacturers can do much better : http://franslanting.photoshelter.com/image/I0000q...

Do they have a little one for the GR when it's still-born?

BTW, the classic SLR look is actually eastern in origin. Just saying.

Money is useless and meaningless to one who has already laid down into the coffin!

Cmon, Rice. Then let's look at canon design... :) How to call that style and feel? "A Teletubbies style" ?
