Focus on Imaging 2009

Just logged onto this years Focus on Imaging 2009 exhibition website. When I looked about a month ago, Pentax were on the list of exhibitors, now they are not.
It's folly on Pentax's part that they do not exhibit at Europe’s largest annual photographic show. Last years show was attended by over 33,000 people, more than any other photographic show ever.
All of Pentax's competitors are there, Canon, Nikon, Sony, Olympus and Fujifilm. I suppose someone at Pentax must have a marketing strategy. I'd love to see what it is....!!!!!

Maybe it is because they were here in 2008. Which.... kind of outnumbers that pity 33000 you are referring to.

But I agree on your remark about their marketing strategy. On the other hand....., I'll guess they choose carefully.

The 33,000 quote was taken off the Focus on Imaging website.
They were being a bit crafty with their statement, as looking at Photokina I see that is held every two years not annually.
Thanks for replying.
