So is it an alternative to / replacement for Bluetooth?

It looks like a high-tech version of one of those old one-man-band outfits.

B&H prices, the largest photographic retailer in the world. Also similar prices throughout that country and through most of Asia
Do their prices include taxes?

It looks like this was what was assumed to be the K60/K70 begging the question what will happen to the K-S1 as it seems too early to be binning that.

So is the 2015 / 2016 line up to be K-S1, K-S2, K-3, FF or

K-S2, K-3, FF

Either way the K50 looks like it'll be shown the door.
Looking at the size and weight of the K-S1and the fact that it is not weather sealed, I see it more as the logical successor to the K-r not to the K-50. That would leave us with:-

K-S1, K-50, K-3, FF and 645D

Looking at the DA lens booklet, it seems there is a relationship with the size of lens. The case length and width though seem to make allowance for the inclusion of a reversed lens hood.
Thanks John.
I've noticed that the S number corresponds to a bit more than the diameter, but the other number is always a lot longer than the length of the lenses for which the cases are recommended.

Do the numbes in then names of Pentax lens pouches relate to the size of lens they will accommodate?

E.g. does 'S80-120' mean that it holds a lens 80mm diameter and 120mm long.
