I could not be quite warm with the K-01 anyway. Annoyed me to the wobbly rubber Worked who abgeckt the SD card and connections. By chunky design I have to reach my mid-sized men hands somewhat awkward embrace to the buttons on the top, reducing my operation speed already which. If the buttons next to the trigger would, if it were better. Otherwise, the user interface is designed for practical and fast accessible. The AF is one of the slower in the area of the APS-C contrast AF, especially in low light conditions. Very flexible are not the AF points. Some of the competitors are there quite faster and more quietly.
The cheap rubber cap @ venues as lens cover is impossible and fiddly to install. Here one would have to assemble definitely a lens hood, the lens is too far forward on the lens to should not be transported in the camera bag without further protection.
The Pancakelinse the camera is also on edge well should make, but this could be important because of the good Stabis only real long-term exposures. A practical and unusual feature.
The AF speed has gained anything by firmware update. For normal situations in good light it is ok; for sport and action to use only with tricks and pre-focusing, with slow movements to do it. Sometimes. But that's all again relative. Until the 80ies, emerged as the AF, photographers have focused only by hand. And who also held sporting events.
Another unusual feature is the 27mm filter connection. I have existing filters or Geli mounted on 40mm XS lens by means of a step-up adapter from 27mm to 37mm.
Incomprehensible details there of course: why has the built-in flash does not RC mode? Why you can not make or atarten the recordings of bracketing remotely trigger or time trigger? So camera shake are inevitable. With an introductory price of 600 for housing an absurdity.
In summary: Who handles this somewhat clumsy, extravagant design and very few operation complications, here gets a super picture quality for the rather slow Photography and a bag full of practical features low and with some searching even the flea market price and the whole thing fits degrees in the pocket. My recommendation: before taking the merchants in the hand, the concept is a bit strange, but it is worthwhile to look at it.
The K-01 is overall a good and thoughtful camera but with Geschwindikgeitsproblemen. Overall, I forgive good 4 *. Rein of the BQ ago there were 5 *.
Update December 2012: I have after some searching on the Mirrorlesmarkt and again because of the decline in street price yet again launched an experiment with the K-01 / 40mm. Currently, to get anywhere for as little money as a top image quality, and with the rapid development in the market and the associated falling prices is unusually low (and thus perhaps more realistic?) Price just an important selling point.
I will report on the progress of my attempt.
