Pentax incorporates retro design cues to semipro MX-1 compact
Electronista came across a newly-unveiled digital compact camera at the Pentax booth during our CES travels and took a few minutes to check it out. Despite being new, its looks are decidedly old-school, and on purpose. The top and bottom plates are made of brass before being painted in either black or silver, the reason being that as it wears it will reveal a polished patina that will evoke memories of the very first Pentax cameras.
