Thread: Tell us all about your Pentax Q - and please add your photographs!

In merely the blink of an eye, or it feels that way to me, we've got at least two members who've already gotten ahold of the Pentax Q!

I hope all you Pentax Q shooters will ante up here with your thoughts, reactions, impressions and, it should go without saying, your pictures.

I've been playing with the camera for a couple of weeks and haven't had a chance to download my photos (read: I'm lazy), but it is actually quite fun to play with. As I posted on the annoucement about pre-order, my major gripe is that there is no WYSIWYG - the final photo looks nothing like what the LCD displays before pressing the shutter button. I haven't played with my toy wideangle lens yet, but it is definitely a coat-pocket camera that has replaced the Samsung TL350 and Canon S90 for now. I'll try to post photos later.

youtsk, thanks so much for weighing in on this new Pentax Q and welcome to Serious Compacts!

I'm 100% sure that many will be interested in seeing your photographs, so please do post some pictures when you can. Inquiring eyes are on a need to know basis! Just in case, here's a handy thread http://www.seriouscompacts.com/f17/h...um-threads-45/ to encourage you. I'd also like to invite you to stop by the Welcomes and Introductions forum, as well. Glad you found your way here!

I just bought one! Just basic black with 01 Prime for now, will be sure to post some pics after the weekend if it arrives before then.

Have to share this cute little accessory

Where did you find that, John?

Manfrotto Pocket Tripod
MP1-CO1
Available at fine retailers

Perfect for the Q, especially since Pentax was wise enough to put the SD card and battery doors on the side.

Hey John! Do you have the Q?
