Boy those posted JPEGs (on Ricoh Japan website) clean up real nice!
(just some typical Photoshop B&W conversion and sharpening, not much else)

I am impressed... looks like there is room for a k-1 in the future for me.

In-deed. That distant detail...
and all this taking into account the much scaled down resolution. hmmm

*thumbs up*

Indeed, real sharp!

Taken on December 6, 2015 !! So they have been trying this K-1 for a while.

I just toyed around with the ISO 6400 & ISO 12800 DNG files in RawTherapee. They seem to be similar to just about all recent full frame cameras, in other words, they look pretty good to me!

When comparing them to my K-50 this is what it looks like:
ISO 6400 K-1 = ISO 1600 K-50
ISO 12800 K-1 = ISO 3200 K-50

I'm going to guess that:
ISO 25600 K-1 = ISO 6400 K-50
ISO 51200 K-1 = ISO 12800 K-50 (my limit with noise)

It looks to be about 2 stops better which translates into the ability of shooting in really low light & getting a really good image! Good stuff!

I wonder if the final production version will be able to push 1 stop further like ISO 6400 on the K-1 being similar to ISO 800 on the K-50. Hmmmmmm....
