couldn't care less about more autofocus modes.
May have to add this to the arsnel too!]]>May 19th 2006 10:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/pentaxs-10-megapixel-ist-d-slr-makes-seoul-appearance/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/pentaxs-10-megapixel-ist-d-slr-makes-seoul-appearance/May 19th 2006 11:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/pentaxs-10-megapixel-ist-d-slr-makes-seoul-appearance/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/pentaxs-10-megapixel-ist-d-slr-makes-seoul-appearance/May 19th 2006 11:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/pentaxs-10-megapixel-ist-d-slr-makes-seoul-appearance/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/pentaxs-10-megapixel-ist-d-slr-makes-seoul-appearance/May 19th 2006 11:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/pentaxs-10-megapixel-ist-d-slr-makes-seoul-appearance/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/pentaxs-10-megapixel-ist-d-slr-makes-seoul-appearance/
I've had my *ist for several years now and love it. Been looking forward to a higher-res version!

And I pronounce it "star-ist" :)]]>May 19th 2006 12:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/pentaxs-10-megapixel-ist-d-slr-makes-seoul-appearance/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/pentaxs-10-megapixel-ist-d-slr-makes-seoul-appearance/May 19th 2006 8:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/pentaxs-10-megapixel-ist-d-slr-makes-seoul-appearance/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/pentaxs-10-megapixel-ist-d-slr-makes-seoul-appearance/
Answer: you don't. Just call it a DS, DL or K10 (the rumoured name).]]>May 19th 2006 10:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/pentaxs-10-megapixel-ist-d-slr-makes-seoul-appearance/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/pentaxs-10-megapixel-ist-d-slr-makes-seoul-appearance/http://www.pma-show.com/2006/digital_camera/pentax_review/009_pentax_10mp_slr.html]]>May 20th 2006 1:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/pentaxs-10-megapixel-ist-d-slr-makes-seoul-appearance/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/pentaxs-10-megapixel-ist-d-slr-makes-seoul-appearance/It's the same camera as the one at PMA.
It's not using a full-frame-sensor.
The lense is the Pentax 16-45mm.
And here is, what I hope for: that it will be affordable. I own a *istDs, and I'm very fond of it, but I would surely like to make the jump from 6 to 10 megapixels.]]>May 22nd 2006 4:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/pentaxs-10-megapixel-ist-d-slr-makes-seoul-appearance/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/pentaxs-10-megapixel-ist-d-slr-makes-seoul-appearance/
How about "Asterist"?

To those pro/semi-pro sports photographers with the *ist DLs; I heard that they have slow fps rates for "motor drive." (What do you call motor drive on a digital cam?) Have you found this true/inadequate?

The concern is that if these cameras use SD/xD cards and not CF cards, at greater resolutions we will have slower frame rates.

Thinking of going digital (for quite a while) and keeping my investments in Pentax SLR accessories. I also do other photography and high res becomes important.

Any suggestions?]]>May 24th 2006 2:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/pentaxs-10-megapixel-ist-d-slr-makes-seoul-appearance/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/pentaxs-10-megapixel-ist-d-slr-makes-seoul-appearance/
