Awesome marketing tactic by Pentax. :thumbsup:
The choice of personalizing the k-x with virtually any body/grip color combo should definitely appeal to the ladies especially the younger crowd. let's hope that pentax is able to sell a lot of these excellent specced cameras

USD isn't that high. US$850 is actually ~S$1200 currently.

unless there is a Samsung version of any camera also using the same 12MP, else i dun think they will produce a new product line with such a small customer base...
