Voigtlander is considering to start a new line of digital cameras

By PR admin | Published: October 8, 2015

The rumor I received is that Voigtlander is considering to start a new line of digital cameras. I don’t have a time frame or any additional details for now.

Cosina recently cleared their inventory by discontinuing several different Zeiss and Voigtlander products.

If anyone has any additional information on this project, you can contact me here.

If this rumor is true and if this turns out to be a new Voigtlander Bessa digital rangefinder similar to the Leica M, it will be a very interesting development.

FIY: there were Voigtlander digital cameras back in 2008 and a digital rangefinder back in 2007 (R-D1 was jointly developed by Seiko Epson and Cosina).

Pentax full frame DSLR camera updates

By PR admin | Published: October 7, 2015

October 6th passed and we did not see any official announcement for the Pentax full frame DSLR camera (the original rumor came from dpreview). The latest rumors I received point to a 36MP sensor from Sony and no 4K video recording capabilities (the previous 42MP sensor rumors came from a Tamron rep).

According to this post by Kenneth Baluba Sporsheim (Ricoh ambassador) the Pentax full frame DSLR camera was delayed because of the K-3 II power-off issue:
