Originally posted by oppositz Because after waiting forever for the FF to come out, I finally gave in and bought a K-5 IIs to replace my K-10.
It came today. Beautiful camera. Love it already.
Tomorrow there will likely be a FF announcement....
Fortunately, I was able to convince them it wouldn't be nice - and to postpone the announcement
Originally posted by rawr Hmmm. Maybe Pentax should have kept their old partnership going with Samsung? And if Samsung bought them instead of Ricoh, that would have been interesting.
Interesting as in: Samsung completely dismantling Pentax, not even the brand remaining - because they couldn't care less about the K-mount, 645D or Q? (but it's way too expensive, for little or no benefit)
While they were "partnering" (rebadging some products) with Pentax, they were separately developing an entirely new system. Aparently Pentax was not given a chance to participate, and was kept in the dark instead. So far for the good partner image
