I have for sale a genuine Ricoh DB-65 battery for the Ricoh GR.
Unboxed but as new, used literally a couple of times.
These are currently £45 in SRS, looking for £30 delivered.

It's a curious choice changing the sensor size, it will have implications for Q and Q10 owners when it comes to new lenses (as someone suggested wide-angle is now likely to be geared towards the new sensor, so not so wide on the originals), and it's not like the change in sensor size is going to give a huge upgrade in image quality.
Good to see they are continuing with it though. Image quality aside, I think the Q gets far more right than the K-01 did.

Press gently back in to the camera and the spring mechanism will return it out. Simple.

I've never used an EVF (Pentax don't make one and it's really off
topic on this forum) but I'd be very surprised if the electronics
could cope with say and f/1.2 lens and a whitish subject without
stopping down the lens. Hopefully Pentax will never make one
and I'll never need to know.
Edit: Possibly the Sony EVF does not close the aperture,
which must restrict the range to that of the sensor.
Don't look at the Sun.
The K-5 LV stops down in 2 stop steps... see here ....

Pentax does have an EVF. It's called Live view and as youv'e noted on Rice High's blog it does indeed stop down to avopid blowing the sensor. :

Big, bright optical viewfinder clips to the hotshoe and offers both 28mm and 21 mm framing lines (latter for use with wide-angle converter).
Excellent condition comes in original pouch.
These are currently selling for £149 at SRS, I'm looking for £100 delivered.
