Originally posted by monochrome It would not surprise me if they issued a 100th Anniversary Edition of all the cameras.
Indeed! Since the KP comes in silver and the K-1 Limited was silver perhaps gunmetal versions of the K-1ii and KP or different colored "leatherette" accents along with the AOCo logo on the prism/flash housing.
Originally posted by reh321 Well, so far they’ve announced the “KP Custom”, which I’ve assumed is a ‘100th Anniversary Edition’ of the KP.
Originally posted by monochrome DOES The KP Limited (not Custom) have something to do with the 100th Anniversary? I don’t think I ever made the connection.
Nowhere is the word "anniversary" is to be found in the announcement for PENTAX KP J Limited except in relation to 100th Anniversary events. There were also just "J Limited KP Tours":

Anniversary does not appear on the J Limited KP box either (see Unboxing photos in thread linked below).
Quote: When I first got a camera from my father,
I remember having the feelings of pride and tension that entrusted important things in joy.
It goes with you wherever you go, and every time you use it, it becomes yours.
The cool mass of alloy that fits in your hands is no longer just a camera, even a camera.
It was more than “a machine that takes pictures”.
I love every single scar I've put on.
There are many models that are called famous machines in the world. But there is only one love machine for me.
Do you love the camera?
Ad camera amabilis esto.
To all lovable cameras
J limited
