Pentax K-5 Now Priced Lower Than Pentax K-30

The price of Pentax K-5 has steadily dropped since Pentax announced its new K-30 DSLR last month, priced at $850 body only.
Earlier priced above $1,000 body only, the K-5 is now selling for $849 at Ryther Camera and for $909 at Amazon.
The K-30, Pentax's new mid range DSLR, matches many of the critical features of the K-5, Pentax's flagship DSLR, such as the 16.28 MP CMOS sensor with SP coating and 100 – 12800 primary ISO range, but lacks a top view LCD.
The K-30 forges ahead of the K-5 with focus lock video capture and a more weather resitent body.
You can view a detailed comparison of the two cameras at Pentax Forums .
The Pentax K-30 doesn't start to ship till June and it's likely that Pentax will soon replace the K-5 with a new flagship product. How soon, is the big question.

Katy Perry for GHD Hairdryers

Katy Perry for GHD Hairdryers Katy Perry continues working with the producers of GHD hair dryers and GHD hair care products: the singer once again demonstrated her luxurious hair in a fresh advertising campaign – this time she had the image of a diva from “the golden Hollywood” era (the pop-diva had already had the image of a hippie, a disco girl, and a mermaid). Luxurious dresses, bright makeup and a small portion of theatricality – one can immediately see that she is a star! The shooting was run by Ellen von Unwerth, who preferred to focus on restrained sensuality and the interplay of tones rather than on bright colors (the latter are always excessive with Katy) and presented black-and-white portraits of Perry to the public. The girl really looks perfect in the pictures : whether she is playing chess, recovering after a tiring concert or just getting ready to appear on stage. But whose merit is this: that of the photographer, the heroine, or maybe Photoshop?
