CP + 2020 Illusion reference display PENTAX product introduction video

Unfortunately, we will introduce a video from this site about the PENTAX product under development that was planned for reference at the Ricoh Imaging booth of CP + 2020, which has been canceled.

Our planning staff will explain the interchangeable lens and APS-C flagship SLR camera under development.
Please look forward to it.
Start of delivery: 12:00 Tokyo time, May 15, 2020
* Since it is during the emergency declaration period due to the new coronavirus, it is a video recorded remotely (not live).

More than one "surprise"? If the flagship APS-C is expected, does that mean 2 more products? Or is it several features of the K-new? Aaaaaah the anticipation! Friday can't come soon enough!

Nice find😊.
Maybe a release date too?

Neither the K-new nor the D FA* 85mm f/1.4 are surprises... so... what else?

**FozzFoster** · 05-13-2020, 07:52 AM

Ahhhhhhh!!

Is the time 12:00 GMT (UTC) or 12:00 (noon) Tokyo time?

My (Google) translated version does not indicate the time zone.

12:00 GMT would be 21:00 in Tokyo, 15 May.

Tokyo time.

No it is GMT, not Tokyo time, but London time! It remains a camera under development, so no release date.

The surprises are the wide angle prime (DFA 20/4 limited please) and the HD remakes of the 16-50 and 50-135 zooms.

You heard it here first.

There is no mention of GMT in the Japanese text, which simply states:

配信開始：2020年5月15日(金)　 12:00

'Available from the 15th of May, 2020 (Friday) at 12 o'clock.'

This being a Japanese press release, the time is obviously 12:00 JST (Japan Standard Time), not GMT/UTC.

Perhaps a new DA* 16-50/2.8?

Perhaps Pentax joining the L-Mount Alliance? I know, the horrors, but it might make sense, and with the proper full-function adapter for K-Mount..
But I would not expect it.

"L" does come next after "K"...
