In a Romanian store:
"Do you have Roquefort cheese?"
"What's that?"
"You know, cheese with mold?"
"Sorry, we don't - but we have Roquefort bread, Roquefort ham - and if I look around, I can find other Roquefort stuff".

(I hope I managed to translate the joke in an understandable form...)

It would be hilarious if Ricoh announce nothing on Thursday.

Kunzite · 01-23-2017, 05:08 PM

And why would they change their minds?

Fully spinning now. Forty-five pages and counting. Such a first world problem, too.

Edit: Cameras, throwing, spinning. What could be better.

Give false rumors, see who leaks, plug the leaks? That's what I'd do if I was in charge of NDAs...

Or just move the date because the news got out.. if they wanted to keep it secrety secret.

They seem to really want to keep it secret, considering they removed the listing from that wifi/telecom listing of new products referred to in the OP. The listing is completely missing now. Not that I think they aren't going to release, just that I'd find it hilarious due to the 44 pages of time spent talking about it.

I got it. Made me laugh out loud.

Good one.

【Rumor】 New product Ricoh (Pentax) announces this week

Ricoh Imaging from domestic sources taught me what I was able to confirm with a new product to announce this week.

PENTAX KP (Black / Silver)
Battery grip "D-BG 7"
Grip S "O - GP 167"
Grip M "O - GP 1671"
Grip L "O - GP 1672"
AC adapter kit "K-AC167J"

There may be others, but it is a list of new products that could be confirmed at the moment. Details are unknown, but PENTAX KP seems to have grip characteristics.
I heard that the selling price in the UK is 1099 GBP, so it may be higher in Japan than K - 3 II.

If that is true, it looks to have different sized grips... I wonder if this means the hand grip as opposed to the battery grip? A modular hand grip that is..

Remember you read it here first, guys; eight days ago:

Take it with a grain of salt for the time being.

From the same source: 24 Mpix, more compact and lighter than K-3 II thanks to further integration of the electronic components, articulated rear LCD, retro look inspired by ME/MX.

I guess the other pieces of information are valid too: "24 Mpix, more compact and lighter than K-3 II thanks to further integration of the electronic components, articulated rear LCD, retro look inspired by ME/MX."
