With the K3, are they now exactly the same thing? I noted the pre-production cameras were labelled Pentax front and rear, the production models had Ricoh at the back. I assume therefore, you could happily enter a contest stating either Pentax or Ricoh equipment only with a K3, and by association, the rest of the model line up from either side. Not that is not an issue here (great photo), but it does raise some questions when you start putting two manufactures names on a single product.

OK, but I understood that Pentax were keeping the brand name on the DSLRs. Not having a K5 of any model, I'm fairly sure even the very last ones are Pentax branded all over, and as I said, the first K3's (pre-release models) were also branded Pentax all over.

Someone decided that the Ricoh brand name would now appear on the DSLRs as well. Just an observation. It's possible that someone at Ricoh has decided that dual branding might not be a good idea after all. 'Ricoh' doesn't appear on the rear of the latest models (K-S1, Q-S1 and 645Z) - Just 'Pentax' on the front. Over on Pentax forums, there were people threatening to change brands over that. Lice High was especially disparaging about it. bill If Ricoh is listening ro Ricewhine, I fear for the future of the Pentax brand, and K mount cameras.

It's much the same as Panasonic putting Lumix on its cameras. OK, but I understood that Pentax were keeping the brand name on the DSLRs. Not having a K5 of any model, I'm fairly sure even the very last ones are Pentax branded all over, and as I said, the first K3's (pre-release models) were also branded Pentax all over.

It's not lost on me that this is a very small and petty matter, but every time I pick the K3 up it successfully yanks my chain and winds me up.
