Bill, in fact, I am more inclined to agree with Rob here. You see, like
Dag said - it was just the words the guy was supposed to say according
to the script that was prepared to him. I'm willing to accept that he
himself had a say as to contents of that script, but the script it was,
nonetheless.
In my line of work, I am very sensitive to certain types of
manipulation. It is because I am often target of such manipulation.
Thankfully not these days, but programmers are indeed very sensitive to
certain types of lies. This was a good commercial indeed, but as a
programmer I found it manipulative. The guy who held the camera did not
come across to me (personally) as one who was actually believing in what
he was saying on camera.

I can understand your feelings, that video content would be viewed as

Why may I ask? You have a guy, we'll give him the benefit of the doubt and
presume he is a professional studio guy, who has may well have never touched
a Pentax DSLR before (Pentax isn't exactly mainstream) who has been hired by
Pentax to work with the K3.
I'm not seeing what Boris is saying as being anything other than something
of high probability, neither good nor bad, just something that is.
What's with the judgement about it?

Fascinating. So Pentax K-3 enters the studio.
The only thing that I felt was slightly awkward, is the impression that I
got the from the photographer - it felt as if he's been working with
other
cameras before that and was asked to perform his art/craft/magic with
K-3.
