So .... it looks like I can go to bed and sleep soundly in the knowledge the announcement is a non-announcement (for me anyway).

Thanks for that ... unless ... you are wrong and there is an announcement ... now I won't sleep wondering if you are wrong about the announcement.

Hmmmmm
What difference will it make?? The announcement will or won't happen, @Rush says it will. So sleep like log!

Time to lock in bets. I think it's the gr3 with a curved sensor as of past rumors.

Here's hoping it is something really good. And more than GRIII.
You could always start a new thread
"Why I won't get a GRiii" .....
talk about the new camera's issues for a few pages
and then talk about whatever you want to.

So, as I poke around this morning, the only thing more painful perhaps than not seeing an announcement from Ricoh for a 50mp mirrorless will be all the people talking about the Tokina Opera and then saying Pentax made a copy of it.....

Wasn't focusing for K-01 same as LV focusing for K-30?
The difference with the K-01 was that you could then shoot right away,
smoothly enough to hand-hold down to 1/10 second or less.

Just want to make sure I'm not spreading FUD and misinformation in my attempt at a little levity. I didn't mean Tokina or anyone official was making such a claim, but I'm referring to the general "discussion" that has already occurred on this forum and elsewhere that the new DFA* 50 is a Tokina design optically, which I think we have pretty solid evidence is not true.

That the DFA* 50 is a Ricoh/Pentax optical design. It is NOT a Tokina design optically. Are we on the same page? Just want to be sure since the part of my quote you referenced out of context of the full sentence is the exact opposite of reality.

Seems like too much drama for a GR.

Lots of talk about the S3, but no indication I can find that it is mirrorless, not that I’m suggesting you said that.
