ha ha, you're a brave man, posting this, even if it is obvious to many of us.

Don't think that they have their presence over at CES (in Vegas) for the last few years... would this year be different? It is more likely that they will be in the next big show in Japan early in the new year.

Not CES. CES is for consumer point and shoots. CP+ in February.

They are on the exhibitor list. Booths #13244, & #26637.

One is in the central hall, and the other in south hall lower level.

OK, so they'll be able to show two big lens barrels?

Thanks for the correction, perhaps a chance for them to showcasing the recently released Q-S1 model; or even replacement models for MX-1 or GR?

I remember reading a while ago that for their Pentax FF launch Ricoh were planning to book Madison Square Garden ...

A little booth at CES or CP+ hardly seems fitting for an event of such magnitude as the launch of a Pentax FF.

Might be sport optics in one booth and copiers in another for all we know..........

Hard to tell from the map, one of the booths looks small but the other one appears to be rather large. But the fact they are attending CES has no correlation with a FF camera. I would be very surprised if there is any more mention of it at CES than there was at Photokina. Maybe the two lenses shown at Photokina will be shown with more detail.

Excellent.
Enough room for a big important stage presentation, and/or some eye-candy.

That a girl, use two hands on that big lens.

That guy is using live view on a telephoto.. is this recommended Pentax technique?

I think the guy in the middle has on an as yet unannounced ear ring cam.

The KS-1 now makes perfect sense.

I am most impressed by just how compact the 645D looks.

You can tell that I am getting old.

Ya what's with them putting in all those skinny little teenage girls that look younger than your daughter, and you'd get called a dirty old man, if you said they looked "hot". SO that's what I say too, the 645D looks awesome.

Ricoh USA should certainly hire these models from Pentax Taiwan (if i remember correctly) for any FF launch.
They seem very good at showcasing FF lenses (an FA77 here, I think), as well as Ricoh watches.
