More Olympus E-P1 leaks

I had (and still have) very high expectations for m4/3. After I’ve seen the first leaks from Olympus, I am a little bit disappointed with the design of the camera. I kind of like the initial Olympus prototype pictures better – maybe because Olympus decided to go for the retro Pen look. Like someone said on another forum – “obviously it’s not a Leica”. But who cares how the camera looks like, right? I hope technically, the camera will perform well.

Norway will end up only with one Pentax DSLR (K7)?

The confusion about the different Pentax product lines continues. Just few days after the official statement from Pentax UK, the Norwegian importer Aronsen states that it will no longer acquire any K20D and offer the K7 instead. The Km is also on the way out, which along with the phasing out of the K200D would mean that in Norway Pentax would only have the K7 in their line-up, unless they launch a new DSLRs this year.

Pentax K7 is not a replacement for the Pentax K20D

There was a report at one point that the new Pentax K7 is a replacement for the Pentax K20D. A Pentax UK spokeswoman confirmed to Amateurphotographer that “The K7 is not replacing the K20D.”
