Pentax FF spring 2016

Another factor is having the camera fully SDHX compliant meaning UHS-II device interface bus speed. This would allow the camera to really take advantage of the versatility of a sensor like the Sony 42mp BSI. It would also greatly increase potential frame rate.

Don't for get to at least also test the old Made In Japan version against te Assembled In Vietnam!

By the spring, it will not be the newest sensor. Delay makes things later, not earlier.

I bet it will have Wifi and same battery life as K-3 or better. Introduction price $2999, yes, and then drop to D750 price within 1 year.

I really want the swiffelscreen!!! That sounds to me like the merging of teutonic efficiency with Japanese electronics - very cool

Kenspo has posted on his Facebook about an hour ago that we should look forward to Friday, supposed to be a good day for Pentax. Not the FF, not the 70-200, but 'big release'

Friday 12:00 Paris time

So, it’s not about the FF and it’s probably not a new top aps-c model, so I guess it could be...about... ah, who cares?

It's not hard to understand the delay.....got to get all the "glitches" out or the introduction could be catastrophic!

I've heard it will come with a sack of complimentary peanuts?
