The LX was a 60th anniversary model, for the 100th anniversary a model name of M would be in order. (...)
If LX is the Roman notation for 60, M is for 1,000, not 100.

I have no issue with a k-33 either (denotes next gen body style. I agree with Zygonyx that with the new body style, a new marque has to be created.
I don't give a hoot about the name! It could be called the Pentax Edsel for all I care as long as it has class leading features and performance!!!!

C is the Roman numeral for 100 (centum). Thus we have century/centennial for 100 years. That's why 100 cents equals one dollar.

What about K* ?

For K star of course.

And afterall, that would seem very cool - if not compulsory - to anounce it next 27th.

Maybe Karen could confirm

Well I for one would prefer the camera to be well protected against leaks

Now about information, maybe yes maybe not? Probably some base specs.

The name will be very important if it is the name Pentax Fotus Tuus. And then the parameters can be any

That wasn't the focus of the presentation. The new camera wasn't mentioned at all.

Ricoh has clearly stated that it will be released in 2020. I guess that CP+ is when we will hear more about it.

But it’s not getting released on the 100. 2020 will be a 101 years.
