The main features of the camera are: * 6 mega-pixels CCD. * Lightweight and portable - 17.8 ounces. * Large bright 2.5 inch colour TFT LCD screen. * Pentaprism technology provides clear, bright viewfinder. * 11 point auto focus. * High sensitivity up to ISO 3200. * Pentax AF lens mount. DPreview.com comments: "Nothing we haven't seen before; the GX-1S is a rebadged Pentax *ist DS2 (there's some new Schneider lenses too, but they also appear to be straight re-badge jobs)." The GX-1S also features advanced optics from lensmaker Schneider, 16-segment multipattern metering for light measurement. It includes a consecutive-shooting mode of up to 2.8 frames per second and up to 8 frames in JPEG format per second.
