Photokina Programm 2018 - RICOH IMAGING DEUTSCHLAND GmbH

More and more I get the feeling the "announcement" is the GR successor.
My feeling is saying that nothing is coming!

That's the point, I think. We already figured this was coming if this is what the OP was referring to in his 'announcement' of sorts.

May be but don't forget that, at the same time and with the same 'presentation' (photography of an internal document displayed on a screen, made with a smartphone), asahi man revealed the optical formula and the picture of the ring-SDM motor of the HD Pentax-D FA★ 50mm f/1.4 SDM AW, which later proved to be 100% authentic.

Between march and now a half year has past. So things may be right, but that doesn't mean that the time line is stil the same.

I always asked myself.. even if the GR is part of Ricoh camera options.. does it really impact anything that have to do with Pentax? I mean mixing what Ricoh is doing with the GR doesnt really matter of what they do with their DSLR line, yeah both are cameras made by the same "Company" but target do different crowds.. so I guess that from a Pentax line point of view, a GR announcement have the same importans as a Panasonic announcement.

I had a great time today, out and taking photos {this time, using Q-7 for a change} ..... then I came back here and immediately wanted to go out again to get away from the fussing .... but dusk will be here before I'm ready for it.

I know this isn't going to happen, so please don't everyone yell at once at me, but I'll vote for a QP (*)

(*) my name for the following
Q-7 body enlarged slightly to fit in EVF
sensor built for modern cell phone
processors from KP

I think there are two things here. First of all, it is one company and so tech that is developed on the Ricoh side can flow to the Pentax side and vice versa. Second thing is that if there is a release of a mirrorless interchangeable lens camera with a different mount from the K mount, I would guess that it would be on the Ricoh side of things, not the Pentax.

I’d vote for that, but I’d probably buy one if it returned to the original body build quality.
