DIT DIT DAH ..... DIT DIT DAH DIT ....HOT OFF THE PRESS .... (Oops! hope that isn't anything rude to you Morse readers!)
Kyocera have done it again ... announcing 29 new cameras in one day ....... those marketing guys are really getting on my wick now! Timed to perfection for PMA, the announcement was calculated for maximum annoyance factor for the Kyocera Kid
Singlehandedly ... they want to fill my much-loved Yashica Family Tree chart with dozens of combinations of the same camera under different colour guises! I can hear them sniggering now, back in Kyoto!
BEFORE YOU SWITCH OFF .... if you think this is just another of Kyocera Kid's SL300R ramblings ... have some patience there is more serious news at the end .... but I am going to force you to read through the humorous(?) stuff first!
Anyway .... it's not SL300R ramblings .... it's SL400R ramblings
Here is the 4 megapixel SL400R
OK .... "29 cameras, he said" .... "I know what's coming next", I hear you say!
The 3 basic body colours Silver(with silver panel), Gun Metal(with burgundy panel) and Pearl(with blue panel) .... can all have 8 different colour panel inserts applied as a limited edition offer.
That's 27 different combinations ...... Hey! you said 29 .....Ah! the other two cameras will follow shortly. But, I know you will all want to see the new colour schemes first!
Colourfully described as ... light/write blue, silver and burgundy, the Sakura pink, blue and wave silver, green, orange and charcoal. They ignored my call for Banana, Peach or Rum 'n' Raisin
