When I read this and watched the video, I had to look in my calendar. Is it April 1:st today? And after seeing that it's December, I checked the link again to see if it was a humourus fake homepage. No!

So is this sophisticated self irony from Ricoh/Pentax side? "If they say we're lagging behind with our sticking with ovf's, let's give them something to buzz about!"

I've got a couple of my film Pentaxes in a display cabinet, kept for nostalgic reasons. Haven't used any of them since I bought my first DSLR, a *istDS in 2005. If Ricoh should try to sell me a new one made for film, I'd just shake my head and walk away.

But they stirred up some dust, they sure did. 🤣
