Originally posted by benjikan Just had a wonderful lunch with the President and Director of Marketing of Pentax France. Ate at Le Sud Restaurant? Was delicious. Oh...Gotta love the Pentax-Hoya collaboration. France is the number one seller in Europe for Pentax and as of today
for every person buying two Canons there is one Pentax sold. Last year at the same time the ratio was 6 to 1. In France Pentax will become more and more visible in the next few months. I can only say this...Pentax are getting more aggressive and I am proud to say that I will be implicated in that process to a certain degree. None the less...
Things look very promising to say the least.
Oh no, this is terrible news... I am deeply shocked, and I thought Pentax was doing well in France. WTF everone is saying... Gochya!!
Well, no one got the point here.... what Ben Really said was... see above. So, using the law of averages, probably only one person in 500 would buy TWO Canon cameras, which means Pentax really sold very few cameras dammit!!
Sorry Ben, it had to be said...
But, good news btw.
