If you’re not an anime fan, this camera
probably isn’t going to interest you. If you are and you happen to
dig ‘Neon Genesis Evangelion’ – and why wouldn’t you, that show is
amazing – then this incredibly niche camera was made with you in
mind.
Pentax has three custom versions of the
Q10 available, known as the TYPE00, TYPE01 and TYPE02. As you might
imagine, each is designed with the same color scheme as the EVA that
it’s named after. Shinji and Asuka’s cameras are fairly bold as you
might expect, but the TYPE00 Rei Ayanami camera is fairly subdued and
stylish. All of the cameras sport the NERV logo when they’re turned
on.
Only 1,500 of each camera will be made
and they’re only being released in Japan. The price is right around
$ 660, or around $ 100 more than a standard Q10.
