AmateurPhotographer seems to think that Pentax is working on EVIL camera:
“Pentax engineers are continuing to pursue the possibility of launching a mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera, as the firm points to an ‘exciting’ few months ahead.”
From AP’s recent interview with Pentax UK product co-ordinator Stephen Sanderson:
“It’s quite clear that we don’t want to be seen as the same as everyone else. We would go down a different route. We are looking to grow. We want to grow. It’s going to be an exciting year. I think everybody will see a change in Pentax.”
Update: there was another interview with a Pentax executive few days ago. The key point:
- Professional Pentax camera (higher than the K-7 model) will be released.
- Refresh of current model(s) is expected this year (2010).
