Thanks @knoxploration. We'll see what the final specs say, and the user's manual probably end of next month.

Prices at some Japanese retailers have been published by Nokishita Camera (see https://twitter.com/nokishita_c/status/1376465905253707780 and https://twitter.com/nokishita_c/status/1376483815862898694):

• Pentax K-3 Mark III Body: ¥279,800 incl. VAT (10% VAT in Japan)
• Pentax K-3 Mark III Premium Kit: probably ¥319,800 incl. VAT.

The price of the camera is roughly equal to that of the K-1 and K-1 Mark II at launch (¥270,000-275,000).

There is no lens included in the so-called Premium Kit.

Too pricey for me. If I were try this camera it will not be this year for sure.

Pentax K-3 Mark III Body: ¥279,800 incl. VAT (10% VAT in Japan)

The price of the camera is roughly equal to that of the K-1 and K-1 Mark II at launch (¥270,000-275,000).

The K-1 II MSRP in Canada for about $2500 CAD.
That is a little more expensive than I was hoping for, but I'm still game.
Will have a preorder out of me is if the price is <$2500, might take me a couple months more to save if much greater than that.

So very excited!

Camera Canada. They have no info on the K-3 III as of yet so my pre-order shows as $0.
Once they get word from Ricoh Imaging Canada they'll reach out to me with the actual price and we'll go from there.
The Pre-Order is more like a placeholder for now until info trickles down to the store and we can move forward.

Camera Canada.

I would probably get mine from them. Good dealer.

I pinged on them a couple of days ago using their online texting tool, but didn't get a reply. Maybe I entered a typo for my phone #.

If you watched any of the videos about the new viewfinder it would be obvious that there is no built in GPS or pop up flash...

Who pays any attention to videos??

They've been closed for Passover since Friday evening and won't reopen until Monday the 5th. Same with B&H I believe.

Camera Canada is open. B & H as well as Adorama are closed for Passover. We were conversing about Camera Canada

Phone sales and customer support for Adorama will reopen tomorrow (Tuesday) morning through 1600 EDT on Friday, when the usual Shabbat closure takes effect. B&H appears to be fully closed until after Passover.
