No surprise here.
It seems Pentax isn't a reliable partner to associated pros.
kenspo, you may not have followed it, but before you, the forum has seen another brand ambassador. It was
benjikan (Benjamin Kanarek, a well know fashion photographer from Paris and North America) and I do still remember that the divorce with Pentax wasn't nice.
I would have hoped that under Ricoh, the relationship to associated pro photographers would be handled a bit more like a partnership rather than hire and fire. Obviously not.
