seems weird to me that pentax is telling all those handling the
pre-production samples of the cameras not to comment on the
image quality of the cameras at such a late date. Are they expecting

Could there be a fly in the ointment here? ? ?
It's a very competitive business. I suspect Ricoh figures keeping the
competition in the dark is important. There are "official" images on the
Pentax website. It also wouldn't surprise me if they are still tweaking
things like NR levels and the like.
A number of years ago I was handed pre-production samples of the
16-50/2.8 and 50-135/2.8 and told to go off and have fun, but I wasn't
to publish images from the lenses until after the release date.
