"sales are going down as well as revenue and profits on the last year." Hmm sounds just like the phone industry. Are they all in trouble as well?

Could you explain how this camera will keep you from getting the pictures you want when you want them?

Or no new cameras at all except the GRIII.  I really don't think there is sufficient room in the market place for Pentax going forward, even more so with Panasonic going FF.

I really don't think that Ricoh has the resources or desire to continue to invest R&D money in Pentax.  The rewards just aren't there.  They will introduce a new GR but that's about it.

A Nikon package including the Nikon D7500, Tamron 100-400, Tamron 90mm macro, Tamron 35mm1.8. Total price $3,195, Price for the x-t3 with 100-400, 80mm macro and 35mm 1.4 $4,698. My guess is that...

I would recommend the Nikon D7500.  I have both the K3 and the D7500 and I enjoy the D7500 much more. Low light capabilities and focusing on the D7500 are far superior plus you have more access to ...

I am curious to know if the USPS purchased an "editorial" image or a "commercial" image from Getty and what liability Getty and or the photographer may have.

If it were environmentally sealed it would be great.

There won't be future cameras if they don't get their act together.

I haven't posted images with my 100-400!

I get better images from my Tamron 100-400 at $800

Every one marvels at the new technologies in mirrorless cameras and can't wait to see what is coming next. But do these mirrorless technologies actually improve image quality over and above what a...

It appears as if they want to remain a small niche player.  That is ok I guess as long as Pentax fans are willing to wait long periods of time for new products and not have access to 3rd party ...

They better learn to "shift over night" because that's what the market demands. If they can't keep up there is only one possible outcome.  It is inconceivable to me that it takes Pentax this long ...

There probably stalling until financial results are announced April 27th.  Don't be surprised if they say they are pulling the plug on Pentax as it no longer fits into their long-term profit goals.

I had a similar problem.  I have the K3 and the DA*300mm lens. I was generally pleased with the combo but wanted a longer reach, better focusing capability, and some flexibility.  I kept the K3 ...

You are right about the smartphones. The wildlife photos I've seen taken with smartphones are absolutely stunning, particularly the birds in flight!

What has nothing to do with mirrorless?

It's all about the money! I have been a Pentax user since the film days and still shoot the K3. However, I just purchased a new Nikon D7500 and the Tamron 100-400 for less than $2000. I...

I can't speak for the Sigma but I did acquire the Tamron and the Nikon D7500.  I previously used the Pentax K3 and the DA*300mm lens.  The images are tack sharp with the Pentax but focusing ...
