Why this lens, that it seems to be already made, is not in my hands?
Ricoh, hear me..Please let me review it, Ill take good care of it..
2 weeks, top..
So the 1.4 is indeed around the world, usually we see beta tests of camera stuff a month before release..December 31 possible?
Do we focus eyebrows for portraits?

may we gossip more? lol..
Ok, kind of strange that the model is Caucasian, when every Pentax corporate model was Asian, as far as I know.
Could it be possible that the lens is already out in the wild?

No, the average Joe already has a aps-c camera, but is looking to upgrade, because he/she is influenced with the bokeh and bigger viewfinder, I already stated this on my second post. They want that pro neighbor look, call it envy.
And the propaganda is there, clear and real, on almost all camera review sites. Sony is having a joy ride with this..
Those Nikons and Canons are old, I give you that, but there are still on the shelves and have the usual warranty, which is very very utmost important for new buyers.

jaja, that would be jolly!
No, but serious talking, its been proposed and I really dont see why not it could be done..Let your imagination flow!
Ok lets go to the workshop..
You select a camera that you know that would be used most of the time in urban areas..hmm lets get a GR..
Ok, lets create a grip that contains the cellular/Bluetooth module and an alternative RTOS/Android module.
Touchscreen 5.5 inch is a must.
Upgradeable apps and a micro desktop, extendible to your smartphone and computer, like a DLNA device
I want that when I connect the grip to the GR, the GR will have an alternative menu, optimized to view and share with contacts and accounts.

Wiki:
"A classic is an outstanding example of a particular style; something of lasting worth or with a timeless quality; of the first or highest quality, class, or rank[1]– something that exemplifies its class"
I would say that its describes pretty nicely the K5iis, as the pinnacle of Pentax features in a single camera, such exceptional low light focusing, ISO 80 and very good dynamic range all the ISO range, almost perfect handling, grip available,wireless flash,etc..Features that,like mentioned before, you would had to mix a Nikon,Canon, and a bit of Panasonic of that year, to have a more or less equivalent..not to mention the K-mount..
Although the K3 and up are much better in some areas, which is expected from newer models, they are considered upgrades, not having breaking news features..The K1 will be the next classic in Pentax lineup..
You have to wonder why the K5iis still retains a high price on Ebay, compared to newer models from other brands..
