Re: Rumors: Two new Pentax DSLRs, K20D and K200D on Jan-24-2008
I was not implying that hassy was making the sensor - I was implying that Pentax is 'gunning for' Hasselblad customers when it releases it's 645D MF camera. When they were going to release it in 2005 it was sporting an 18mp Kodak sensor - All bets are that it will have a larger sensor (24mp - 30mp?) from Kodak when it hits the shelves. Sort of, a bargain priced digital medium format camera. By bargain, $6k - $10k..

Lake Hiawatha, NJ | I'm torn as well.. It will be the only semi-affordable digital medium format camera with an endless supply of lenses.
If it comes in with the original 18mp Kodak sensor, maybe it will cost about $3k - That would be sweeet! |

Erial, NJ | Old news. I doubt the Pentax name is going anywhere just as it's starting to mean something. |

4 edits | Still all down the road BS.... unless Hoya has changed things, with both 100 and 10D release dates were precisely anounce AND precisely LIVED UP TO... well in advance.
But these are comig out in Jan and NOTHING officially Petax announced, I really doubt it.... especialy as it would be post Holiday season and no real incentive for a sneak attack.

| Just an FYI, I've had 8.8MB JPG files from my K10D. Actually, the large files came from that shoot I did of my friend's artwork - it's in my gallery here. I'm not sure if the one loaded is it but, they were all very high with a minimum of 7MB.
(the one in my gallery has been shrunk to comply with site rules) |

PENTAX K10D
100mm 1/8th F8 ISO100

I know what they're speaking of though - on average, just normal landscape shots etc, where there is a balance between highlights and shadows, 2-5 MB is average. If that average is now around 8MB, that's a LOT more detail.
(sorry for the download killer)
