Where do you get that Ricoh is abandoning the Pentax brand? Because
they haven't announced a full frame camera? Because the flashes don't
cover a 24x36 frame?
Sorry, I didn't mean for anybody to fall into the sarchasm.
Sheesh. It's the first update that the flashes have gotten in years,
and it's a feature that no other brand offers. This is a shot across
the bow of Canon and Nikon. The price is completely ridiculous, but I
really don't see how this indicates abandonment of the brand.
That is exactly what my point was. This is a major, and much needed
upgrade. Didn't Ricewhine actually predict something like this about
a year ago?
I wouldn't consider it a prediction if it's from a year ago, and
Ricewhine has predicted a lot of things, very few of which have come
true, (I know predict a lot of things those that come true trumpet to
the world, those that don't never happened. There's a business model in
there somewhere).
