With a short stick......

It's just going to be a deal on remaining K-01 inventory at a really low price. That's my guess...

Actually, considering the mass market of that show, I will prognosticate that it will be a super clearance deal on a P&S camera.

Agreed. We're talking WG-10, or maybe remaining inventory WG-2's

I don't think there is a FF around, since I would have known that.

A pointy stick gets more reaction.

Whatever it is, it still puts the name Pentax out where the public can become aware of it. I'll count that as a step in the right direction.

I think sport optics for hunting and bird watching....

This enthusiasm and positivity has me severely disoriented.

+1. If nobody has ever heard of you then you have to start somewhere.

Also, very likely. As camera buffs we do tend to focus on that aspect but take a look at the sport optics category and Pentax gets generally favorable reviews in many categories: astronomy, hunting, marine boating, bird watching and so on.

Maybe they will be announcing a special deal on a endoscope for home use.
Or a new theodolite for all the familiy to enjoy.

Did you guys get that email about the Mother's Day deals from Pentax?
That's my guess...

The message: PENTAX savings. Just in time for Mother's Day.

Or it will be the long awaited Full Frame Endoscope?!?

+1 to the "Can only be a good thing" comments...just getting the brand name out there is a postive for sure.

Cheers

That's actually quite good. Well done, Pentax!
