Just back from Monday's show and I wasn't very impressed by the Ricoh stand either. It seemed very bare and somehow down-market compared to lots of the others. Ricoh have lots to shout about so surely it's worth employing some decent set designers to make the stand have more pizzazz (is that how you spell it?)
I played around with the K3 and KS2 and was not approached by any reps at asking if I wanted further info. Come on lads - you need to do better. I've come away disappointed.

a studio set up would have been good with a couple of models and the k3 and 645z set up to take photos with some cheap small memory cards could be a good idea for people to try and take the memory cards away with them
you always have to be one up on your apponent

in my opinion john to slow the 70/200 an should have been with the k3
the 150/450 should have been and gone and should be on a par with tamron and sigma by now and up to 600
the KS-1 to me is a lash up the grip on it as to may edges to me you should not feel that edge in the grip to me its was a backward step
comfort is the key word for a camera in hand
(i have to admit that nikon are the same with there cameras not good)
a nice 135 150 and 180 dedicated macro would be nice
and if i remeber right some one as allready said pentax have no plans for the sporting /wildlife side of lenses
which then comes down to where are they going to get the new customers
thing is there is me having a winge but is there anyone at ricoh reading these forums and taking note

i have a feeling that if ricoh carry on as they are they wont have a dslr they need to be pushing and they are not they are just happy to plod on
i think there heart is more into th 645 format than dslr
but that is just my opinion and thoughts
and sorry if it affends some people

that was a very good system back in the 80s as i had a canon f1 for a week and i hated it so i went back to jessops and he just said what camera you want so i said the lx and he just swaped mounts for my sp200

they may do
the only problem i can see comming up is as tamron and sigma bring out new lenses and discontinue old onesand not replace the pentax lenses
it meens second had value gose up pentax will put there prices up and you will also have the loses of lenses which are not servicable ricoh will pull the plug as sales drop even more

I think if pentax had had them 3 big lenses set up on tripods with k3s attached and with memory cards or those other cards so they could be transmitted straight to a laptop
Which they could have done with the 645z then there could have been some good fun
Think they ought to ask some of the Pentax users next year for some ideas and help doing it
