I'm sick of this constant MILC propaganda.

KP not K-P looks like a K-x K-r successor.
Guess you missed this post:

QuoteOriginally posted by shakereduced Quote
The original source (Nokishita-Camera.com) who uncovered the KP registration tweeted a couple more KP things a few days ago. Unless Google's translation is wrong (Twitter's built in translation is unintelligible), it sounds like this will replace the K3ii. I can't tell from Google's translation whether he says a silver KP will be announced now or at a later date. The translations from Google are:

"Confirmation of Pentax KP's coming soon. It is a class equivalent to K - 5 and K - 3 II on the merchandise classification, and it is not an entry model such as K - S2 or K - 70.# Quick News # Rumor"

"Confirm that Pentax KP and a new battery grip D - BG 7 will be announced next week. Silver (number unknown is unknown) is likely to be announced together (undetermined) this time. # Follow-up # rumor"

They don't hang out on the rumor threads...it is against the rules. I only ended up here as a vagrant blown in on an ill wind of fate.

Ever see any snow in Pasadena? I never did. None over in Pomona either. Now up in the hills to the North, well, it could happen there.

There can be some within 5 mile radius, in altadena and on the mountain pasess like HWY 2, around in the state park and the end of sierra madre blvd, some 2 miles east on 210, 3 miles north. It's been hot and dry until recently though, so we haven't gotten that much in the past few years. It does look very nice when we have white mountaincaps.

3-4 more days till we know more. I am looking forward to this release from Pentax, I might actually buy this one.

If it's a solid kAF4 then, it will leave out those kAF3 lenses. Majority of the lenses have aperture lever. They have to allow old lenses to fit in this camera.

Nothing about kaf4 means the aperture lever is discarded, it means it enables electrical aperture control for compatible lenses.

Well, there isn't any here right now - pretty much all melted away here.

I haven't had this much anticipation from an upcoming Pentax release in years.

And I will laugh if it is 20.9 MP.

Is there any sort of news conference/announcement planned, or are we just going around in circles here?

HEY GUYS! Have you heard about the Pentax KP endoscope?

(This is one case where we can be glad Sigma isn't making new Pentax lenses anymore. Yeeeeeow.)

Somewhere there might be a group of proctologists anxiously awaiting the next KP and wondering what the specs will be.
