Originally posted by falconeye Good Lord. As some know, I'm shooting both Nikon and Pentax now and cruise the Nikon forums regularly. What is it with Pentax shooters on this and other forums? Every week the sky is falling. This is a totally unsubstantiated rumour from a member whose been wrong in the past more than once. Why do you give one member this much power?
Nikon got nearly nothing out of Photokina. One camera, no D700 replacement, no D300s replacement etc etc. The forums are calm and happy over there. No complaints no bitching, no calling the CEO/product guys/whatever an idiot.
Here, we get 2 new cameras, 2 new lenses a worldwide release of the 645D and every second thread I read is negative, doom and gloom crap. When it's official, then go jump off a bridge. Until then, this is a rumour that has no basis in fact and IMO
WAS TOTALLY IRRESPONSIBLE TO BE POSTED IN THE FIRST PLACE BY A MEMBER (Falk) THAT JUST WANTS TO LOOK IMPORTANT BUT SHOULD KEEP QUIET FROM NOW ON UNLESS HE HAS SOMETHING POSITIVE TO SAY OR VERIFIABLE FACT.
Quote Falk:
Ok, I was able to obtain this much of verifyable information:
The new German dealer price list from Pentax lists the FA Ltds. as "EOL" (end of life).
Every German dealer should be able to confirm. Maybe, dealers from other countries can report what information they got.
I refrain from interpreting the exact meaning of this information.
So you refrain from interpreting the meaning yet you post it as fact. Calling it verifiable. In doing so I consider you the single most irresponsible member of this forum. You are no more than a gossiping fear monger who has taken some very positive news and twisted it into a way to scare people off.
*If I was anyone from Pentax, I'd never speak to him again on the threat of getting fired. The rumour might be true. That's doesn't matter. Creating this scare thread is BS. I’d also ban you from the booth and make sure you can’t talk to or see anything.
