I’ll look good carrying and shooting pictures with the PENTAX K-x DSLR in red noh? Hahaha.

DSLRs often come in black, white, or gray, but Pentax has come up with this beautiful red DSLR. The white version isn’t bad either.

I heard that it’s possible that there will be no additional charge for this service.
