pentax k-x leaked

meh, the d5000 and d90 record 16 bit mono 11khz. the 500d does mono but at 44.1khz. so the kx is at least in line with its competition

Yeah sure its your opinion it has no place on a DSLR, but it doesn't seem like any major manufacturer is buying that; movie mode has current become a "me too!" feature ranging from implemented truly as a quick fix to concepts and ideas on the right path...but none really have reached where it should be.

Sony? They haven't implemented video on any of their DSLRs yet ostensibly because they don't think it's been " done right" yet.
I'm sure that it will come in some fashion at some point though.

translation: "Give us a year or so, we implemented live view that is actually worth a damn! Wait till you get movie mode through our viewfinder!"
Yup you are right...it'll come eventually. Just like Pentax and FF (although I'll think they'll pick it up once it becomes cheaper) although I like APS for many other reasons (and "ff is un necessary" is not one of them)

Not that it couldn't be improved on further but imo they do have the best LV implementation ... esp on the A5xx series which gives you the choice of either fast AF via aux sensor or slower critical focus through imaging sensor.
It will be interesting to see what they consider "done right" when it comes.
