Asserting that she received 'information' she wasn't meant to receive says nothing about validity of the 'information'.

Very cool, I'm looking forward to winning that k-new!

@Karen the Star; has information from Japan which would indicate Jun 10 is a more likely date.
New information about new flagship's selling date - PentaxForums.com

I am sorry, but where on earth did you pull this date out from? The linked thread is just about a more than vague and sloppy assumption on a random japanese blog. As you are not indicating a more concrete source either please do or, I guess you know how the internet works, refrain from posting dates with no substance.

And still he did not provide any information regarding the availability date. 11 pages in this thread did not give any clearer information. It might be available by summer is far from being anything from any official information. If people are inventing actual dates for random events based on that - that is just ridiculous.

The new APS-C is for me !

**MetteHHH** · 12-02-2019, 01:31 AM

Wow!

I'm not good at mass-posting: I managed 82 posts in November, but this last weekend was too busy for me to reach 100 and claim a ticket. But this month I am definitely going to do my very, very best to reach the raffle-ticket limit!

But... does this actually mean that the winner will receive a copy of the new APS-C body shortly after new year? Because, speaking as someone who has been holding her breath for a while now waiting for a release date - well, that is almost a prize in itself! I mean - the release can't be THAT far off then, surely?

(Or maybe the winner will simply get their prize whenever the release happens, which could be at any point during 2020?)

As Adam said previously, the winner will get one when it’s released, regardless of when that is.

If I win, I don't mind when they'll give it. I'm sure they'll give it. And it will definitely be brand new. Now I wish I'll win it.

Nononononono it’s MIIIIINE I tell you! 😁

OK, microlight. I guess all the "black tape" posts got my hopes up for a pre-release copy.

All extremely hypothetical anyway!

That new K series will look great attached to all my old glass.

That is correct. Whenever the release happens. Not before.
