It could mean many things, as Wikipedia and others suggest.

I vote for 'Papa' [Latin for Pope], 'purchase price', 'Party Pooper', and 'Peter Principle'.

I downloaded your image and undistorted the image so the type is in a "corrected" proportion.
After doing so, I'd now be willing to put money on it that it definitely says K-1.

We still don't know if it's a boy or a girl!

Or is the PP sticker for peepee........

PP stands for 'It is not important, stop guessing and trying to make it into something it is not'

pre production

But what is the lock button on the side of the mirror housing? Mirror up? Lock camera?

ogl · 10-25-2015, 06:08 AM

preproduction prototype - the standard abbreviation

it's 100% correct info

it means that it's not FINAL product and it could be changed.
We saw at least THREE preproduction prototypes of 645D and the last one was working sample, but the real 645D had changes. Even body design was not the same.

The lock is the same on the 645Z check out the operating manual u__u

I was not previously interested in getting a full-frame, but now I am. Unfortunately, it'll probably cost at least 1/3rd of my annual income.

Rather than dig through the manual I did a google search... this is what I found, is it right?

"... and finally the Lock button which prevents mistaken operation of certain dials and buttons when shooting (it can also be configured to lock all buttons except the shutter release... "

D1N0 · 10-25-2015, 08:10 AM

Maybe it is a function to lock the camera (like you can lock a phone).

Kunzite · 10-25-2015, 08:21 AM

A touchscreen lock?

I'm curious what you will see via viewfinder when you will mount crop lens. Will viewfinder add some black border around or you have just some grid what show crop there? How it looks in different systems?

It's there, where the 'Play' button used to be on the K-3.

Don't need google and I prefer to know exactly what I'm talking about

The 645Z opérating manual says
Lock button: temporary disables e-dial and button operations to prevent misoperation. ( p.R43 )
