Pentax Limited Edition K2000 White DSLR K2000 Double Zoom SLR Kit

It's been a while since a product has genuinely had us salivating
uncontrollably as we stare at the screen but the news that Pentax have
announced a limited edition white version of its K2000 DSLR camera
complete with a double zoom kit certainly got our attention and we've
stared so longingly and for so long at the image of the exceedingly
beautiful white K2000 that its become burned on our retinas.

The limited edition white K2000 Double Zoom Digital SLR System comprises
of a white version of Pentax's 10.2 megapixel K2000 camera - the
standard edition of which was released back in September 08 - paired
with white SMC PENTAX DA L 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 AL and SMC PENTAX DA L
50-200mm F4-5.6 AL lenses and whilst Pentax's press release details that
its limited edition white K2000 Double Zoom Digital SLR System will
begin shipping on a '�very limited basis' as of February 09 pricing of
what is (even in its standard edition) a highly desirable DSLR is yet to
be formally announced - but don't expect it to be cheap.

Pentax detail their K2000 DSLR’s key features as follows:

10.2 megapixel CCD sensor offers superior image resolution with maximum
control over noise.
One of the smallest and lightest available designs makes the K2000
perfect for spontaneity. Easy one-handed operation with a comfortable
carrying weight makes transitioning from a point and shoot trouble-free.
Expect the right exposures with the settings you want. Auto Picture mode
automatically calculates photographic factors to pick the best picture
mode, optimizing the camera settings for any situation.
Ten intuitive Scene modes offer point-and-shoot ease by further
optimizing the camera for common situations and subjects.
A 2.7 inch high-resolution, wide-view LCD monitor beautifully displays
your pictures, and provides intuitive, easy-to-read menus.
With body-based Shake Reduction, the PENTAX SLR system will stabilize
your shots, providing maximum flexibility with no compromise in optical
quality. It increases your handheld shooting shutter speed range by 2.5
to 4 stops for blur-free pictures, and is compatible with every PENTAX
lens ever produced.
Leave the manual at home. The dedicated and reprogrammable Help Button
on the K2000 is like having a built-in user's guide. It clearly explains
camera settings to ease the transition from compact photography to DSLR
mastery.
Dust Reduction and Dust Alert features eliminate the need for
time-consuming retouching by minimizing dust and determining if and
where any dust remains after the system is activated.
PRIME image processing engine maximizes image properties and allows
custom adjustment of image parameters, such as truer color tones, a
wider dynamic range, and natural-looking high ISO images.
PENTAX has manufactured over 25 million lenses in the last six decades;
all DSLR bodies offer backward compatibility with every one.* Whichever
lens is used, whether a most recent lens or a classic screwmount, it
will faithfully capture the image desired. (*With adapter for screwmount
and 645/67 lenses).
Custom IMage modes, with six preset options, offer superior control of
how the PRIME processor develops images, and can be further modified to
meet your needs. Get beautifully processed images in any shooting condition.
Approximately 1,650 images can be taken when using AA size lithium
batteries due to their energy-saving design. (Four Energizer lithium
batteries are included with each camera.) Plus, AA power can be found
anywhere in the world.
