Japan is one of the few countries there you can find some stat like sold cameras. This could be of interest I guess:

I hadn't realized what a good seller the K10 was.

So they generated more revenue from the 645D than the K-5?
I didn't expect that!
One 645D sold for every four K-5's sold!

I have used this link:
http://photohito.com/camera/

and as I click on any camera I can get info like this
http://kakaku.com/item/00491211147/

I have not found any info about Pentax analog SLR for 35mm

The link
http://kakaku.com/camera

can give us more info about DSLRs or Compacts in sale today as how many new orders they have on D4 or EOS 1DX
 
Well we were told FF don't sell, but these are big numbers if they are only for Japan.

And Sony sold more A900 than Pentax did Kx? Looks suspicious.

I believe a Pentax FF in the same price as Alpha 900 would sell very well in Japan as Pentax APS-C is stronger than Sony APS-C. However it is difficult to say much about the 2nd hand market regarding lenses. i mean it should be of interest to know how many Pentax AF versus Minolta/Sony AF they have....
 
It is NOT the sold cameras, it's the number of comments.

Would you care to elaborate on that rather cryptic comment?
Yes as I know no Japanese it looks as I have given you wrong info. Yukumizu can you find any info about sold cameras in Japan or wordwide?
 
クチコミ means comment in English (which is not my native langage, I'm French).
Exactly : mouth + communication, word of mouth I presume.

I have no information. I can read simple japanese. That's all.
 
Sorry to say that these numbers are not units sold. They are indeed comments.
 
Well that makes a bit of difference - LOL, not trying to be rude.
