OK, I'll invent one---Pentax is likely printing a big sign to put over their booth at Photokina

And they will be in red.

A sign? "Toilets - second door, to the left"?

Actually, I hope they'll have a nice stand at Photokina - please, Pentax, you have the 645D: you can make huge amazing prints. Which is something Canikon can't do

The mini cameras last time were a good idea, but it's time for something more "serious".
Can't wait to see it.

O and please Pentax, at the next PhotoKina, let the nice girls turn around when I can hold your 645D!

I know this is sacrilege but I'd rather hold the girl!

Well, it would be nice to get my hands on a Pentax 560mm lens too, but maybe not at the same time.

'Use' is different, although nice in both cases.

If you compare all the things Pentax-Ricoh is actually doing ( a lot of photo-contests, adds etc.) in Germany right now, i think it will be a very huge and cool PK 2012 Booth!

PK is quite a way of yet though, like half the year.

we should get some news before then, surely?!

Photokina is still less than a year after Ricoh acquired Pentax.

Maybe, maybe not.
The timing of photokina is quite nice right before the holidays.
Probably some new products will be announced before that and Photokina will be the show to official introduce those products so people can have a hands-on.
And probably new upcoming products will be displayed or announced on the show self.
