What if they just announce a silver edition of K-1 MKII ? That would be a downer :P

Does that TC Thermos come with fluorine coatings? If so I might consider it. Probably won’t even have to wash it...,nothing would stick to it!

I want to recap what I'm expecting from the Photokina:
1- the 2 RCs compatible with Full Frame
2- An almost ready DA* 11-18
3- The mockup of the D-FA* 85
4- The mockup of the D-FA 70-200 f/4
5- A new 645 with full frame MF sensor
6- The mockup of a new 645 lens
7- A new APS-C flagship camera
Be prepared for disappointment. I would be surprised if even one of those came to pass. More likely:

1- Hint that 2 RCs compatible with Full Frame might be coming in the next year or two
2- A mockup and hint that DA* 11-18 might be coming in the next year or two
3- The mockup of the D-FA* 85 as a dark mysterious photo in a slideshow
4- The mockup of the D-FA 70-200 f/4 as a dark mysterious photo in a slideshow
5- A hint that a new 645 with full frame MF sensor is something that they know some people want
6- The mockup of a new 645 lens as a dark mysterious photo in a slideshow
7- No mention at all of a new APS-C flagship camera
8- An announcement that the Ricoh GRIII is to be released in the next year or two

I hate to say this, but this looks suspiciously like a thermos I pick up in a local Chinese shop for about 10€, with "Pentax" added. No way it's worth anywhere near £30.

And here is the proof:
I heart it has ITCS. In thermos caffeine stabilization.

A genuine Thermos would set you back about £15 - the rest is the Pentax branding premium. Likewise a T-shirt worth £5 will become a Pentax brand T-shirt for £20, a £0.50 pen will become a £5 pen and so on. This is how fan merchandising works. What it is 'worth' is down to the buyer...nothing to do with the actual cost of production. Any iPhone owner will tell you that!

I'm hoping for a battery charger powered by a hamster wheel (hamster sold separately) for folks who want to be able to take photos off the grid, but live in places where the sun doesn't shine a whole lot to power solar devices.
I think establishing green credentials could pay dividends long term - in many countries at least - it would be a smart move IMO

But is it FF, i.e. does it contain 1 L?
