Three new Pentax DSLRs by the end of the year, fourth full frame camera a possibility

Some Pentax rumors coming from the Russian Consumer Electronics & Photo Expo  2012 - the first three cameras are supposed to be announced by the end of 2012:

  1. New entry level DSLR (maybe this rumor about a new mirrorless camera got lost in translation?)
  2. A new DSLR placed between the K-r and K-5 models (Pentax K-r is already discontinued)
  3. A replacement of the K-5 model (some reports indicated that the K-5 is discontinued)
  4. The fourth statement was not clear, but the representative mentioned not to sell old K-mount full frame lenses, hinting that the fourth camera could be a full frame Pentax DSLR. Rumors about a full frame Pentax camera have been circulating for a while - see this and this post.
