Pentax K10D video tour

We're pleased to present a short video tour of the Pentax K10D, which includes an overview of its design, build quality, controls and features. There's no need to download any new software - just press the play button in the middle of the screen below and wait for the video to start; you may need to press the button twice. The quality and any delay before playing may vary depending on your internet connection.
