I think that there won't be any big camera announcements until Photokina. The tele-converter is a possibility, HD FA Limiteds very doubtful.
The TC 1.4x is very likely, I hope to see something interesting before Photokina.

Unfortunately, in my case, the initial cause of GAS was overconsumption of broccoli and garbanzo beans, and this particular type of GAS can only be alleviated by acquisition of more cutting-edge gear, preferrably with a PENTAX badge on it (or maybe an A7r badge).

@jcdoss, I think I also have a GAS problem, so you are not alone.

My GAS problem affects every hobby I get involved with. With photography, it's lead to horrendous, concurrent cases of LBA & CBA.

As said before, the insane expanse of camera industry manufacturing that signified the last decade or more is about to cease. The bubble is contracting and we are coming back to good olde conservative values which Pentax does not mind at all.
Photo shows and trade exhibitions will be lower in voice and the public will need to relearn what the photography and imaging is all about. The time of cameras is gone. Welcome the time of lenses.

Ps. And you think Sigma with all new investments in art lenses et al does not know what times and climate is now coming?

I'll guess at the TC and one or more lenses from the roadmap. A 645D refresh is overdue, too. Maybe some new compacts and new body colors that don't matter to me.

I don't expect the undying rumor of a sensor between APS-C and 645D to happen this CP+. That makes an FA HD refresh unlikely to be announced. Those 2 things will be announced together if they ever happen.

Aye me too, but we're not allowed to say that ** outside a certain thread, so it must called "the format that can't be mentioned" here.

You can just say "nudge-nudge, know what I mean?"

Hot potato is definitely off the menu during the CP+ dinner.
But the bubbly and pickles will be served copiously.

Well if enough bubbly flows they might just get their finger out and launch the "nudge nudge".

** Some time late in 3Q 2014. Even larger format some time late in 4Q 2014. Somewhat smaller format 2x some time late in 2Q 2014. Something you will either like or not like some time late in 1Q 2014.

And a lot of optics.
