PENTAX Imaging Company has announced a limited edition, white PENTAX K2000 DSLR system with a double zoom kit. This new model replicates the original K2000 design that launched in September 2008 for consumers who are ready to make the transition from a point-and-shoot digital camera to digital SLR photography.
The E-30 is positioned as a mid-level model between the E-520 and the E-3 models. It has a newly developed 12.3-megapixel high-speed Live MOS Sensor, new TruePic III+ image processing engine, and a built-in image stabilization system that offers up to 5EV of effective compensation.
The sensor is also mounted on a flexible circuit board as single unit, greatly reducing signal and circuit resistance, power consumption, heat, and noise.
