This is what the Pentax K-1 Mark II J Limited 01 looks like in different colors:
By the way, not so long ago Pentax K-1 Mark II was introduced in a silver case.

I expressed my opinion on the design on my instagram.
I didn't look at Instagram, the design is horrible.
However, this is not the first time that this has surfaced, so it is no longer very surprising.
Watched. Very accurate voice acting!
The best animation artists were obviously involved in the design development, and you ridicule ...: D
We are waiting for Pentacles K-entai version
That's right, Rodion, I believe that this camera is designed purely for its domestic market. And there may be fans of this design.
Pentax has previously produced similar versions for the Asian market.
Obviously, most commentators are unaware of this.
(I haven't watched instagram, not registered there)
I am not registered either, but the video file from the link is being played. There Arkady coolly superimposed the sound sequence on the video sequence with the camera design. By the way, Arkady, you can insert this video on this site.
oh no, it’s not like that, it’s just different colors. Limited J 01 is different. There's a whole concept here. They already had something like this many years ago
This is all clear, it just seems that Olik and Pentax decided to lock themselves in the Japanese market, judging by their marketing policy and pricing.
Turquoise and yellow look pretty good.
Blue and silver look quite normal.
If you remember, the film Nikons and Canon of the late 90s - early 00s were silver.
Nikon also had red cameras of the 5x00 series.
And at Pentax, all color cameras go to the Asian market.
Blue and silver look quite normal.
I'm talking about K1.
(Nikons F80, F75, F65, F55 and a lot of Canon films - offhand EOS 50E / 55)
The silver Pentax looks quite nice compared to the silver film Nikon. Just like the red Lumix G3 it looks very good, which cannot be said about the red Nikon 3000 series.
It was not about colors, but about poor forms.
“Go to the Asian market” there they go.
The camera should not distract attention, but be just a convenient tool, but here is some kind of parrot.
"The camera should not distract attention, but be just a convenient tool, but here is some kind of parrot."
Tell this to the owners of limited Leeks, which no one in this thread will buy, and if they do, then like the Chinese about whom Koba wrote - so that they can hang out on their belly.
It can be seen that neither a pro, then shoots on a watering can, at the World Cup there are completely white and black pipes with a Lake nameplate, and actually Leica also occupies a leading position in sales of photographic equipment with a huge margin from the others :)
A small correction - not “black and white pipes”, but red, blue and green, occasionally gilded ones slip :)
Leica, this is not about sales, this is about Margin :-)
And apparently they feel good.
Perhaps even better than Pentax.
Now, this is exactly what the truth is! Personally, I almost stopped using professional Kenon lenses precisely because they are white, made for my own advertising and immediately attract the attention of all and sundry! Bresson once even peeled off the red logo from the camera, and now Leica is releasing a camera without a sticker, but here is the exact opposite. This camera looks great in black, military-industrial design. The cameras are excellent, but as at one time a pest from Sony's company was sent to Penta, who made a toy camera manufacturer out of a serious company and basically ruined the company itself, now they did the same with a professional camera from which they made a toy. Previously, other companies, and all companies, if they produced multi-colored versions, they were either silver or military camouflage (khaki), or covered with gold, or added noble leather, and here we see an idiotic palette. And this is not for the Asian market. Asian photographers who buy K1 (!!!) are more conservative than their European counterparts. For the initial segment, that is, children of 12-16 years old, it was still possible to make 3-4 colors, especially for girls, and canon also made 100D white, which found its buyer, personally saw a large number of 100D personalized white colors in different countries from girls but the K1 is clearly an overkill and sabotage of its image as the top-end camera from Pentax, which it is.
We once liked the 100D Lynx. But he's not a girl.)
Sexism and Aydzhism, further we will write that for Blacks the camera is simpler, for Jews - more expensive. And the Russians don't need a camera at all, because riding a bear in the taiga doesn't need a camera.
In our grayness, bright colors are superfluous and bring dissonance
well, listen, you're a literate person. white optics housings are made for a reason. fluorite does not tolerate overheating. that's why everything is white, so that it warms up less. and in general, less thermal expansion and problems associated with it.
You rave
Who said…??? Where is it written ... For a camera manufacturer, a camera should be on sale, if it is on sale, then there is a demand, if there is a demand, then a camera for someone should be just that.
Fewer words, more action - as soon as THIS comes out - run on pre-order to write off hard-earned money from the card)))
When there is no innovation, you have to limit yourself to repainting.
Rather, effective managers fool the shareholders of a company when they track all of their previous announcements. Previously, there were a lot of promises, but in fact, practically nothing, and they seem to receive money for such “developments”.
All previous lenses also seem to be rework of old ones. "Rethinking". Pentax pupated, like Leica, but cheaper.
Something similar happens with Tokina.
Aventador design looks like an amateur, but if I had a Lambo Aventador, I would buy this Pentax. For me, silver (warm on my monitor, almost gold) and black do not look bad (especially from the side of the display), but the puff area is a little pretentious.
The victory of the image over common sense. The first glance brought me back to memories of Megatron and Optimus Prime ... Where is Bumblebee? :);)
Like Zorona
The era of reference of photographic equipment design to the creations of pop culture, the campaign has come. Just don't understand, is this a reference to Cowboy Bebop, Cyberpunk 2077, Gurren Lagann or Mass Effect?
With such a beak, you will definitely not be able to put the MTO-1000 on it!
Pentax is a religion
"Briand is the head"
77, 43 and 31mm focal lengths are very comfortable for crop
Hatsyu, Hatsyu! Little blue! (like K30))))
and I don't care what color the camera is ... if only it was comfortable in the hand and did not make noise on large ISO.
Gentlemen, these are just extremely small-edition collectible cameras for the Japanese market. Leica also "sins" with this - periodically releases something limited. I think that the circulation of all these cameras will be no more than 500 pieces. There is no need to draw any conclusions. Innovation has nothing to do with it. Marketing move no more.
This insert on the handle is some kind of ancient manual purely Japanese technology of woodworking and varnishing. For the Japanese, this is a fetish. Something legendary.
The Sigma SD1 was also in wood grain, limited edition, sold across Asia.
And you can also make the camera body individually. How bicycle frames are made, rifle butts ... Everything is individual and organic. You take a fotik in your hands, and it looks like a glove! ☺️
I don’t understand, should I repaint everything? If autofocus works through F? Or do they think that the pictures will be better on the red one? 😂😂😂
Better to bring kp to mind.
Gorgeous! Just for the sake of design and worth taking. Reminded of mad catz mice. A real work of art
How are you gentlemen? Do you like this product? I would say so ... With such a creation, you are unlikely to show up at a wedding ... in my opinion, the camera should beat black or silver-white to the maximum, if we are going to take a picture in the wilderness, so as not to be "overheated" :)
Pentax pentax, does not already know how to seem interesting to buyers ... Technology is needed, not ... And where is the mirrorless? M?
batmobile.
