If Ricoh, Pentax are not making money try making copiers and lenses instead of THETA things that most people dont care about, thanks Ian

Without the Theta it's possible they wouldn't have enough money to stay in business. Who knows.

Anyway, the lenses will eventually come out, nothing we say or do (except for buying new products as a group) will speed that up. They said at photoplus that the 85mm is scheduled for next year, along with the two other lenses that have already been unveiled.
