Here's the English version, but no more info. I think it's a 645Z?

Considering the url has '645z' in it, I'd say that is a good guess.

In the Japanese site, it looks like the translation roughly comes out to:
"Notice medium format camera new product prior experience events of 'experience and talk live'"

JPT · 04-01-2014, 07:39 PM

Makes me wonder if they're going to rebrand 645 mount as Z-mount.

elliott · 04-01-2014, 07:48 PM

Looks like the timer will run out in about 13 days.

Paul the Sunman · 04-01-2014, 07:50 PM

Yep, 12.88 days and counting (at time of writing). Get your order in now.

Are you sure you want to see a 268 day countdown timer?

Ayoh · 04-01-2014, 08:17 PM

Why not just call it 645D mark II or equivalent instead of a new model letter. What will they call the next model? 645DZ2 ?

From Pentax Australia FB, basically the new 645 I guess

bobmaxja · 04-01-2014, 08:55 PM

The US site of RP was not smart to put the 645Z in the URL. But what could you expect from them
