<\/p>\nTrouble began when I read about rumors of a mirrorless camera from Pentax that accepts any K-mount lens.

Well … this mommy ain’t the slim and sexy type though. Hahahaha! She’s ermm … boxy and ermm … weird … but I’m loving it!<\/p>\n

The super duper thin DA XS 40mm F2.8 kit lens that comes with it is way cool too! I’m glad I sold off the slightly thicker older version some time ago. \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n
