@RonHendricks1966 Direct Question. Please cite factual sources.
So there is no answer to your question.

That more people don't have certain other people set to Ignore surprises me.

The following consensus statement needs to be repeated in many threads I guess:

Everybody knows and agrees that Ricoh's Financial Statements (intentionally) say nothing really about the whole Pentax photo division other than one or two explicit half sentences if we are lucky.
Whoever interprets anything detailed into it (beyond just citing text passages which definitely are about the photo part), especially numbers, about Pentax is pretty much a liar with a sad personal agenda as much as anyone judging IQ by measuring the size of a head.

And it is completely off topic here.

Back on topic. I think Ricoh will not bring anything for the Asahi birthsday. They did a 80 year anniversary GRii for Ricoh's birthsday. Had some trouble selling all those, so why put company money in the birthsday of Asahi?

Correct. You didn’t or couldn’t answer with citations. I was asking you specifically, not the Forum.

Again: Ron, how many Reflex cameras and interchangeable lenses did RIcoh Imaging ship - yearly - from 2011 through today? Please cite your sources.

oh boy. Well I and Mistral75 have posted on the subject more then once. I'm not going to spend time on looking into that today or this week again. It is to find here on this forum and on other places. If you never read about it, I would say don't start loosing sleep over it now.
Yes and you've ignored mine and others criticisms of your posts more than once. Those posts did not go unchallenged, which makes it even more surprising to most of us that you are still posting the same old nonsense as if no one ever responded.

In other words, you've got nothing.

Since your postings were endlessly picked apart when first posted, I'm sure the same would be true now. You make it sound like at some point you posted convincing arguments. You didn't.

The can just copy Nikon and sell some new colored version of old stuff in a big case for a ridiculous price.
That costs 3 hrs work for an intern.

All of a sudden I realize that I own the product that Pentax released on their sixtieth anniversary. I bought it new, from a Pentax dealer, just a few years after said anniversary. Now I feel very old...
