IMHO it's either K-ONE or K-01.

It just says "K-O" for Knock Out!

Another tantalizing glimpse. It seems that there is some sort of small grip (the shadow in the 2nd picture).

I dunno, I only show what I've found.

From those glimpses it looks as if the bayonet is on some sort of half-dome?

Was this found in the chinese forum as well?, it was strange how after the first image was leaked in that thread for the first time ever, no one even bothered to reply to it????

The half dome design does seem intriguing, kind of like the whole design can easily go downhill to being "ugly" from there on, lol!

The thing does not look like to me designed by a hip industrial designer, no?

Or he decided to be more traditional with this one.

Still, I really like the idea that one of the forum members said about a collapsible mount. But having a mount that can adjust its distance like a built in bellow on Mamiya RZ67 would be very neat. It would increase more options for lenses other than K-mount and those with similar flange focal distance.
