News about Pentax Hamburg
QuoteQuote:
Pentax Hamburg firmiert seit dem 1.4.2010 als Pentax Imaging Systems GmbH und zeichnet für das Imaging-Geschäft in den Märkten Deutschland, Österreich und Schweiz verantwortlich. Zeitgleich übernahm Sven Martens (35) als neuer General Manager die Verantwortung für das operative Geschäft in D/A/CH. Die Neufirmierung wurde notwendig, da die bis dato in Hamburg ansässige Pentax Europe GmbH juristisch ab dem 1.

Oktober 2009 in die französische Hauptstadt verlegt.

Translation via google:

Pentax Hamburg renamed since 1/4/2010 responsible as Pentax Imaging Systems GmbH and is responsible for the imaging business in the markets of Germany, Austria and Switzerland. At the same time took over Sven Martens (35) as the new General Manager responsible for business operations in D / A / CH. The name change was necessary because until now legally resident in Hamburg Pentax Europe GmbH from 1 April 2010 is located in Paris (the move because, as rumor has it that the French had sold a successful Digitalkompakte). Operationally, the European headquarters on 1 October 2009 in the French capital laid.

I think what this means is that Sven Martens guy knows something about the up coming, soon to be released Pentax FF system.

Finally!

The move of European headquarters from Germany to France what known for a few months; it is probably caused by the very good performances of Pentax france, where Pentax reaches 2 digits market share (up to 14 % if I remember well)

Hmm -Europe headquarter passed to Paris because in France Pentax sells more compacts.
On other side Pentax Hamburg is responsible for the market intro of the 645D in Europe
see = > https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/pentax-medium-format-645-6x7-645d/95845-s...on-europe.html

I don´t think the loss of competence (from european headquarter to local D-A-CH [Germany, Austria, Switzerland] headquarter) is good for this 645D market intro (and all the more prof Pentax equipment)
