Just FYI but you buying used gears off of ebay does not generate ANY revenue for Ricoh. Since you are asking them to invest heavily in the brand I am curious how much have you invested in the brand? In new gear that actually generates revenue?

I might be wrong but Pentax medical is a completely different company. I believe Hoya kept that part when they sold the camera part to Ricoh.

I disagree with that marketing style in this case. Spending huge amounts of money on a shrinking market makes little sense. Yes Fuji is developing lots of new equipment, but are they making any money at it? Or just trying to buy market share?
