This really my hope rather than I guess but the Tamron would be a 150-600
That would be a welcome surprise! Though the DFA 150-450 is such a brilliant lens, a Tamron clone may not be able to match the quality. Indeed, judging be the reviews I've read, it's good but not in the same class.

I am so looking forward to the announcement. After a hiatus of a few years I am finding time to enjoy photography again. I'm loving the challenge of BIF.

This is already a bit overdue, I think...

The road map is just a piece of paper we learned. Everything not found in shops is a surprise.

I bought an F50/1.7 not a month ago.
Stop making me lust for things I don't need!

anyone feels it is time to replace the aging K-1now ?
And bring it in what direction? Megapixel monster? Speed demon? Both, but with a 4000 price tag?
Honest question here; for me there is nothing I really miss and the IQ is up there withing spitting distance of the very best.
My guess would be the K-1iii in 2022 or so.

Oh, those expectations. I keep hinting quietly that Pentax should acquire the licence for Sigma's 20-40mm long discontinued lens. Sort out the firmware, upgrade coating, add WR and DC and it would sell like hot cake.

Nooooo. It will be the new 80-400 f/3.5 APSC dedicated lens. It will be as big as the DA* 60-250 and as light as the new 55-300 PLM

It will really knock me off my chair if that lens will be given to me. Just wishing out loud.

Nokishita Camera's sources are very much downstream, hence their precise leaks a few days before the actual announcement.

No leak from Nokishita Camera means no product announcement, only development announcements and/or the announcement of additional but still incomplete specifications of products, the development of which has already been announced.

There is never a time for that.

I wouldn't mind a few more megapixels.
