Will Pentax make a KP II?

Re: Will Pentax make a KP II?

The K-1iii seems the obvious logical choice.  With all the FF MILC options these days, Pentax is likely losing users in this segment, despite having captured them only 5 years ago.

I see no reason for the next K-1 to be significantly lighter.  I mean, the K-3iii is more compactly built,  but scaled up to FF, it still isn't a A7IV.  I don't think Pentaxians care about that as much as everyone the MILC world does.

As far as as an "entry level" FF, I don't buy it.  It's still going to be 2 grand, easily.  I don't see the market for a stripped down version of the best Pentax can do.
