The TOWER RECORDS x PENTAX RAINBOW K-r strays far from the standard all black body that most people are used to seeing. However unconventional this DSLR body is, it is actually not too surprising that PENTAX is the brand behind it.
It's actually not the first psychedelic camera that the photography brand has released. The TOWER RECORDS x PENTAX RAINBOW K-r comes after a model released last year, the TOWER RECORDS x PENTAX RAINBOW K-x. This DSLR wont be gracing the camera collections of many photographers as only 300 are being produced. Orders can be placed now, but these multi-hued cams don't start shipping out until July 22nd. The going price is $1,100, and the camera comes with a DA 35mm F2.4 AL lens.
