I disagree. I understand the logic of 'K-1' even if I believe it is an ultimate dead end naming strategy.
Wouldn't it be grand to see the K-New given an actual name like "Spotmatic" rather than yet another sequential model number? Once again,
I suggest an actual static name. The flagship APS-C body could be named "KAPS" or whatever, and then each subsequent model would then
be referred to the year it was released. Thus, the 2020 KAPS, 2022 KAPS, 2025 KAPS, etc. So simple and no dead ends.
("KAPS" is, of course, just an example. Please, no comments suggesting KAPS is a dumb name. I agree KAPS would be a dumb name.
But I think the idea of a unique, static name denoting each platform, (flagship APS-C, flagship FF, 645, mid-level APS-C, etc), is a sound
concept.)
