In 10 days do not even think to fall into temptation and write that the revealed stuff is "exactly as you have been informed about", with perhaps "one more thing left unveiled, to be ready for the summer".

I know slightly more than 'nil'.....as much as has been shared with me, anyway. By whom, I can't reveal, but it is the same as Ken is saying!! We've already seen the 70-200 and 150-450 FF lenses, the body is only days away from announcement (for a late Autumn release) and probably 8 more lenses still to come this year! Exciting times are ahead....

I do think that kenspo is doing right thing. Everyone is waiting, and it is good to respect your sourses. Not to bite the hand that is feeding you. Long waited lenses anyway! And plausible long waited new camera. No matter what is coming, lot of people is saying that it is pure sh!t, ect. So no reason to reveal anything if not possible,yet.

Well, he is an actual Pentax-sponsored photographer, AND he supplied a specific time of an announcement. So if you still want to call BS on kenspo, I'd maybe wait until after Wednesday.

Sandy Hancock · 02-02-2015, 03:05 AM

Yes. Kenspo's credibility has an expiry date. I for one am pretty excited about the direction Ricoh might be heading with the Pentax brand.

Haters and trolls can laugh as hard as they like in a few short days. If they get the opportunity.

645 Year is 2014,Fullframe Year is 2015.
Next Year we should see new 645 lenses,one or 2 zooms with sr,2 lenses with shutter and maybe one prime.
Than we should see 3 zooms for Fullframe,maybe one Prime.
And,the Body.
What do you think about the Display of the 645Z??? It´s possible.
The new fullframe zooms are in a pricerange between 2000 and 2500 €.

Best regards and good morning

We shall see in coming days...

Uluru, I know it's hard to accept this but many here knows more than you do

(though in this particular case and at this particular moment I will not claim any such special knowledge).

I trust kenspo - because his identity can be reasonably identified. I can't fully share his enthusiasm because I don't know exactly what he was told, and if his sources weren't exaggerating.
I guess we'll just have to wait few more days

Yes, wait until after wednesday. Im confident, since i allready have read the press release they are going to put out on wednesday (Thursday Japan time). Many people have guessed correctly what will come on wednesday anyway.

Kunzite · 02-02-2015, 04:14 AM - **1 Like**

Some (un)likely conversation at Ricoh Imaging:
"We must prepare for Wednesday night"
"Why? What are we going to do Wednesday night?"
"Same thing we do every Wednesday night - try to take over the world!"

That means Thursday Sydney time, I guess.

I can't believe we could only have a few days to wait before we might be able to put an end to all the FF speculation threads here on PentaxForums. The place won't seem the same.

I will back you up also got the mail. May stop the speculation but will start the Pentax is doomed threads because the price is to high.

Kenneth, I beleive you (even if I could not check your identity). Because your statements largely coincide with my business partner's statement. As I said a few days ago in a phone conversation he used a present tense "Pentax is releasing fullframe" but I cannot verify wednesday/thursday or any other exact date as a release date. Probably because he is not related to Ricoh marketing in any way. I hope that you are right, cant wait thursday.

I also think it is going to be a great year. Think it is time to see the bank manager going to need it.
