No news on FF.. but more rumour on Q...
Rumour: New Q with larger sensor - PentaxForums.com
A New Pentax "Q7" with a 1/1.7 sensor and a 07 MOUNT SHIELD LENS..
K50 and K500 was added to the PF review page
Pentax K-mount DSLRs - Pentax Pentax Digital Cameras - Pentax Camera Reviews and Specifications
even discussion threads were setup for k50 k500....
Ricoh Go Go Go !!!
Wow, KXXX for entry level, KXX for advance, KX for the full frame? Lol
FF is a must... How else can you pull in the crowd?
Different people have different needs and wants, the option must be there.
Simply put, just like in life, if an organization offers you a position in the administrative role with an average yearly increment of $50/yr only and your only way to broaden your experience is by transferring from one dept to another while still having the same position and incentives, will you be happy for years to come?
Think about it... In life, people seek options...
Looks like its set for at least 3 models (entry/ mid/ high).
I'm interested in what is the upcoming high end model.
Most likely 24mp aps-c though.
FF? Its a bonus if its announced this year, but I won't put any bet on it.
Q7 is certainly a nice step up.
Balance between sensor performance and big crop factor (abt 4.5)
The 01 becomes like a 35mm and toy fisheye gets a bit wider.
In theory, the K500 offers much more than entry cams of competing brands (esp for real features to help in photography).
But many layman buyers buy based on brand, so I don't know how it will pan out.
Hopefully it will do well.
If they offer an upgraded K5 with even better DR and detail, with improved AF, I'll get it.
Otherwise, old is still gold!
Still waiting for my 10mm pancake lens
