Rumors: the next Zenit camera could be based on a… Pentax DSLR

By PR admin | Published: October 4, 2018

Two days ago I reported that Zenit will announce new Nikon and Canon lenses and a new Zenit camera in 2019.

I received some information that the next Zenit camera could be a DSLR and they could be working together with Ricoh on the development (rebadged Pentax K-1 maybe, just like the Zenit M is a rebadged Leica M 240).

If you have any additional information on that project, please contact me anonymously here.

By PR admin | Published: October 3, 2018


Olympus published several financial presentations for their Olympus Investor Day 2018 and it seems that they have further revised their future sales downwards (their Q1 revenue from mirrorless cameras was already down 11% YoY).

Maybe Olympus did a mistake by not joining the L-Alliance? The company did not have anything to show at the 2018 Photokina show, but they said they are planning some major announcements in 2019.

Here is their plan to get out of the current downturn:
