Photokina 2018 Q&A - What would you ask Ricoh?

I have to say this is one of the more logical responses I've seen. I think the reason some of us expect a K-3II refresh is Pentax was first and foremost a APS-C (and medium format) company until the K-1. The K-1 was/is a great camera but it isn't a K-3II update and neither is the KP. Nikon on the other hand always (or at least for significantly longer) offered a full frame lineup.

The K-3II is a good camera but in terms of IQ it fell short of expectations compared to the overachieving K-5IIs. A lot of people with K-5II chose to skip the K-3 upgrade path and will happily upgrade when pentax releases the next generation APS-C flagship. Unfortunately the KP is not quite that camera.

I'd love to know if Pentax ever plans to release a fast normal prime for APS-C? Something like the FA* 24mm f/2. In fact, I'd have loved if they just re-released that lens as a DA/DFA*. It was a great design and very underrated.

Obviously, this would follow the question of when will a K-3II successor reach market.
