From
DCWatch October 22 [Google translated]:
The confirmed release dates are:
November 1: K-3, battery grip D-BG5, the new 55-300 WR, and maybe the FLU card.
November 29: the limited edition silver K-3 kit.
From the article:
Quote: Ricoh Imaging, decided on November 1, the release date of the 18-135 kit body and digital single-lens reflex camera "PENTAX K-3". Limited model "K-3 Premium Silver Edition" will be released on November 29.
[...]
In addition, battery grip "D-BG5", camera strap "O-ST1401", "55-300mm F4-5.8 ED WR HD PENTAX-DA" also released on November 1. I have the upcoming launch a Wi-Fi enabled memory card that was announced at the same time as K-3 is "FLUCARD FOR PENTAX 16GB".
The article also says the 2000 limited edition silver K-3 kit sold out on 11 October. That was quick, but not surprising.
