Well we will know tomorrow what ever Ricoh announce. What are the chances of it being a FF prototype I wonder?
None, it will be the K3 IIs


Best regards

I still see it as a stop gap camera, but a move in the right direction. As for AF speed, it doesn't make too much difference as, like others on the forum, I use other kit to get results in that area.

If Ricoh had not offered the Ltd (and at the price I've paid)I would not have bought one.

I'm still confident that a larger format is round the corner.

Side by side tests with your own cameras is always a good thing. You can see whether the new model is an improvement or not and even if it's not, the manufacturer, importer and retailer made money.

Can you really afford to ignore forums and web testing?

I didn't expect the K3 to improve on the K5 in fact apart from the selectable AA filter it may only be an improvement in the AF area that's worth having in my case.

It is strange that Ricoh announced both cameras (Std and Ltd ) together and it may mean that even the K3 is a stop gap.

FF is on it's way and Ricoh are on board. Squeezing a little more DR from an APSC is not the way forward.

Yes I have a K3 Ltd on order. It's more of a collectable than a requirement for me and I don't see it blowing away my K5.

I see it possibly being the last of the Pentax top APSC cameras but then to be rational, the K5 series already has that title.

All of this is only my take on it.

Great shots.

Images 3, 5 and 7 are typical of scenes seen frequently on Kwinana Freeway running south from Perth. Main reasons being crystal meth and too many stubbies.

A great image Bill. In fact, somewhat inspirational.
