Pentax K-3 DSLR boasts web-based remote shooting, antialiasing control

Wow this would be great for starters, I mean being able to control the camera just using a app would be awesome. I assume you just click record on the app it starting recording and when your done just click the button again. This means you don't need a camera man. So basically you have your phone beside you camera placed on tri-pod aimed at where you want to shoot/zoom and just record it with simple touch, instead of having to walk over and click the camera to stop. Great for starters, it cost 1,300 for the body itself and 1,700 for the body and lens kit.

Pentax has focused most of its recent attention on entry-level photographers, but it's showing some renewed devotion to serious shutterbugs by launching the K-3. The new 24-megapixel DSLR supports a new WiFi-equipped SDHC card, FLU, that gives owners remote control of the camera through any device with a web browser. They'll also have more control over the shots themselves: a new antialiasing toggle lets users pick between smoothness and raw detail without having to switch cameras. An updated 27-point autofocus system and 8.3 fps burst shooting are also welcome upgrades over the K-5 II
