Sabbatical year? They announced 4 lenses so far (one subsequently postponed), 2 DSLR cameras, one fixed lens large sensor camera and a compact.

That was a beautiful lump of plastic, it was pure art, what's your problem?

You're just jealous because you don't have a lump of plastic like that, I know I want one...

It must be scary to have someone living in your head like I live in yours.

now just to find a Sony source to see if the 42MP BSI was sold to Pentax!!

I love the title of this thread. I laugh every time I read it. Its like the "Free Beer Tomorrow" sign at the bar.

Glad it makes you happy,at least my thread was not in vein

..but then again I never said 4 months from 'when'

This thread is continuously accurate. Still only 4 months to go....................

There might be a connection... hmm... someone better change the title to "FF out in Feb 2016", otherwise we risk it being postponed again, and again, and again, 4 months at a time.

I'm not sure how Spring 2016 became February 2016.

Firstly, I was taught in (Canadian) school that spring started on March 21st in the northern hemisphere. Secondly, "spring" does not necessarily mean "first day of spring".

Still, I suppose one can be optimistic. Or one can simply dream.

Kunzite · 10-07-2015, 05:49 AM

It only became February 2016 because CP+ 2016 starts on 25th February; it's an obvious choice to announce the FF there.
Btw, the Japanese spring starts on 5th February (and ends on 6th May).

I wish someone would tell the weather that. February's the coldest month. CP+ was basically snowed off two years ago, and I nearly missed a flight for a business trip because everything had come to a standstill. Still it's true that Japanese people tend to declare the start of a new season as soon as they possibly can, so they could be aiming for CP+ for the release.
