Sounds like idle speculation to me at this point!

If that happens, that would be the sign I have been looking for to sell my K3 and DSLR lenses, including my car to get the 645Z which is the camera I have been wanting for a long time anyway. I guess I have to ride my bike to Grand Canyon to get those spectacular shots only the 645Z can produce!

Makes absolutely no difference to me, as I have no interest in going 135 format.

I tried the 645Z during the french "salon de la photo", it is an excellent studio DSLR but for an intensive use outside I think it is a bit heavy.
So if I was rich I would buy a 645Z but mainly for studio, not for traveling a whole day outside (what about booking a sherpa?).


The K-1 (tentative name) will NOT be delayed anymore.

What difference would it make at this point? There is no rush. The reasons for rushing left years ago. I'm sure there are one or two people who will in disgust move to another system. It will not make any difference to Ricoh's plans.

What if they canceled the whole project due to "market changes"? What if they closed Pentax completely? What if they bought Nikon?

But it won't be delayed again. The only concern now is will it be a trouble free best seller? I sincerely hope that with all the extra time the launch is faultless.

This is me. If I were going to change systems, I would have done it long ago. I'm due for an upgrade, so if the FF camera were pushed back indefinitely, the only thing I'd do different would be to buy a K3ii.
