I seriously doubt that any camera company will introduce a camera that is aimed at owners of old lenses or other brand lenses. Lenses are where the profit is, just like razors and razor blades. However, could Ricoh introduce a camera with an older "classic" style UI, that's a different question. How much more would it cost to rearrange the exterior placement of buttons and dials while retaining the same chassis to get two different versions of the same camera. A K2 style lens mount ring, but controlling aperture not ISO, an MZ5 style shutter speed dial with fixed speeds and "Auto" and maybe ISO and auto mode in a dial where the rewind crank used to sit. But will enough people pay more for the same basic camera (and I am assuming that both cameras have the same features, just a different UI)
