we really need to see what happens in this year, the 'Pentax Centenary Year', before reaching a conclusion like that.
I was disappointed when GRRRR pre-announcement was the only Ricoh-Pentax news at Photokina 2018 .... I hope Pentax has more news this year.

Ricoh is making PENTAX disappear.
It's like chicken & eggs. Business responds like an S shaped curve. There is a threshold at which the investment creates a virtuous cycle, and under this threshold the business slowly decay. It looks like Pentax failed to find the threshold or Ricoh top execs don't care about the camera business. I don't think other brands invest a lot more than Ricoh, it's just that Ricoh are too much on the low side to keep the customer base flourish. Yesterday I stumbled on Ricoh side for checking lenses from the 645, the site is corrupt, and I wonder how much it cost to get the web site right, THIS kind of thing triggers a Warning in me, because if a company as huge as Ricoh is not able to get a web page right, it tells volumes about how serious they are.

Of course they do; they do and they can because they are much bigger than Pentax.

In the digital camera (and lens) business Olympus, the second smallest, is two and a half times bigger than Smart Vision (which includes, but is not limited to Pentax), Leica is almost three times bigger and the others (Fujifilm, Panasonic, Nikon, Sony and Canon) are much bigger than those three.
