Was it weak barrel's strenght part of DFA-50?
It seems the usual high grade barrel flexed slightly due to the heavy front group of the D FA* 50mm.

Please read the Mechanical Design section for details:

If I understand asahiman in right way, K3II replacement will have more than 24 MP.

24 s already high for a more action oriented camera (we already have the K-1/K-1ii for IQ and the KP for small form factor, so action is where you'd expect the K-3iii to sit) - so I would think that Ricoh would be making a rod for their own back if they tried to push up the Mp.

He said that new camera with 24 MP is not DSLR.

APS-C, 50 MP. That goes with what asahiman seems to have claimed (more than 24 MP). It'd be the highest resolution APS-C camera to date, if I'm not mistaken, but we know Pentax is always good for something unconventional. But 8.3 fps at 50 MP? I'm not sure whether that's supposed to be correct, or whether the intern at Adorama creating the listings just typed in the K3's specifications. Because with an all new sensor, processor etc., I'd be very surprised to find exactly the same continuous shooting speed down to the decimal place. Especially with such a high resolution - that'd take some serious processing power.

I sincerely doubt that we will see a 50 MP APS-C DSLR from Pentax based on current technology. Who the heck would want one? I suspect this was, as stated, a placeholder for the next Pentax APS-C DSLR and it wasn't supposed to be seen.

Looks like the son of the K3 married to a 645Z...

I guess it's just nothing. Only a guess ...

definitely mostly a mash-up of bits of text

But my first thought was 'placeholder' - and my eternal optimism is staying with that

Although I'm very happy with mine, I wish to have joystick instead of arrows to select focus point quickly.

That's the possible reason.

But

Photokina is coming soon and there is something going on

Something is screwy with Adorama email offers. Frequently over the past few weeks the links they offer lead to completely different items. I wonder if they have been hacked some way. Helen?
