With Photokina and PMA coming up Jan 10 and Feb 26 is it a good idea to 
wait on purchasing the ist ds2 until the shows to see what Pentax has up 
its sleeve?  Any ideas as to what our favorite camera company might

Photokina?

2002-09-27 Thread dick graham

The last couple of Photokinas we have had a few members of PDML on hand and 
giving reports to us, they even talked with the Pentax reps, I 
believe.  There has been such a lack of information on the list about 
Photokina this year am I to assume we had no one on hand?  Oh well, might 
as well hope for something at PMA in March.The PMA 2003 website is up and 
running.

For what it's worth, it depends on weather you can wait that long.  I'm 
betting that Pentax won't have any sleeves this year let alone anything 
up them, unless of course it's a Silver DS2.

Methinks Pentax will have something *really* cool to show at PMA in Feb
but it probably won't be available until summer. I expect it'll be
priced to be a replacement for the ist-D rather than the DS2 (over $1000
US, in other words) so if you're looking at a DS2 I'd buy it now.

PMA will be too soon for seeing anything different from a Samsung rebadged 
Pentax (probably a DS2 or DL) and maybe a Pentax DL2 or DS3 (just a DL or 
DS2 with Samsung components inside). That was more or less stated on 
occasion of Pentax-Samsung agreement, hence it is not necessary classified 
info to expect that.

Anything more than that is pure speculation and hope, IMHO.

Photokina will be next September, probably not too soon to see true results 
from Pentax-Samsung partnership.


And then my own opinions about mid & top class bodies (wild guess):

I expect to see the faster 50-210 (or the like) D-FA lens at PMA.
I also expect some updated news about the 645D at PMA, but not yet the real 
thing.
I don't expect to see a Super D at PMA, as it will need some more time for 
sure. Or maybe we'll just see a mockup or three ;-)

Interesting question. Possibly some announcements but nothing yet in
mock-up stage, would be my guess. We can be certain of a couple of
things: Neither Pentax nor Samsung rushed into their business
arrangement. And Samsung must have had a sensor and perhaps some other
technology almost ready to go when they started inquiring about a
partnership.
Samsung is big leagues and they're accustomed to very short
design-to-production cycles. It wouldn't surprise me if we saw nothing
at all at PMA in February and then had working prototypes at Photokina
in September.

Probably the same or just a few less, Pentax don't compress the RAW files plus 
in all their wisdom they pad the 12 bits per pixel to 16 bits. If you check out 
the average RAW file size generated by other cameras with the same sensor 
you'll see what I mean. Pentax, marching onwards and downwards.

The baby DSLR is a safe bet and rumors say something is happening in the lens

Otherwise one can hope for that Pentax will show their 645 based DSLR although it is

I think Photokina is always interesting, and there is
more to see than you can manage in one day :-)

However, with Pentax expected to have lots of 
new stuff, this year is more interesting than ever.

Photokina observations...

2010-09-26 Thread Thibouille
1/ pentax gave some cool bags
2/ there were some pretty nice girls there ;)
3/ the Fuji x100 is Very Very nice specially it's hybrid viewfinder,
Imo it will sell well (considering it's niche).
4/ K5 AF is indeed more nervous, how much better af-c s hard to tell though
5/ 18-135 is nice, large but short. Felt way better constructed than
other DA WR zooms.
6/ once setup correctly, the k5 did NOT do DFS after about 3 minutes Bulb pose.
7/ 12800 iso quite useable with a pinch of Lr3 NR. 51200 is salvage
only obviously.
8/ no memory cards were allowed in camera :(
9/ nothing new on video controls
10/ mirror lock up just as in K7
11/ buffer (bummer) very short indeed due to 14bit raw but they may
change that or add a 12bit mode.
12/ the 645d is Heck I WANT one :) and very nervous AF IMO.
13/ Pentax still have the biggest bags :)

I may remember more after a bit of a sleep.

Long live the PENTAX!





Life goes on. I still like my kit.  I know that I won't replace it with 
anything that doesn't afford me at least the same options and cost 
significantly less than what's currently the case. Fortunately, my 
client is me. I can pursue what's important to me and use any means I 
damn well like. Most pros are driven to provide what their clients 
expect. My sympathies to them.

Somewhere down the line, I may get the equivalent of a Canon G2 (or 
whatever the future equivalent will be, maybe even a Pentax), but it 
would be to replace my Yashica point and shoot, not my Pentax kit: 
ZX-5n, FG grip,  Autobellows A, Refconverter M, AF500 FTZ, FA 24mm f:2, 
FA 35mm f:2, A 50mm f:1.7, A 50mm f:2, FA 77mm f:1.8, FA 100mm f:2.8, M 
135mm f:3.5 . I actually like all this stuff and get great pleasure

The last Photokina speculation thread on PDML before Photokina

2012-09-04 Thread Darren Addy
For the purposes of discussion, let's assume that the Russian Pentax
tweet about "nine" press release announcements coming in the next few
days/weeks are going to cover Pentax (and Ricoh's) combined product
announcements prior to unveiling them at Photokina.

I think the 560mm telephoto and the 24MP APS-C K-3 are in the "for
sure" category. That leaves us with 7 more announcements (and they
could be for anything from flash to accessory to lens to camera).

If I were placing odds I would put them in the following order (from
most likely to least likely)

The Pentax K to Q adapter shown at CPP+
A new flash unit
Pentax 645Dii
The "DA High Magnification Zoom lens" on the roadmap for 2012 (this
language sounds a lot like the lens on the X-5 bridge camera, only to
cover an APS-C image circle, so I'm guessing a 16-250mm superzoom)
A fast wide lens for the Q... a 5mm f1.8 would be perfect.
A K-mount module for the Ricoh GXR (sells more lenses to another
installed base)*
A K-z entry level (I have my doubts about this even happening... I
think Pentax is abandoning the low-entry DSLR arena, but I think that
would be a mistake)

*does this count as a Pentax announcement? Is the Pentax booth
combined with Ricoh at Photokina this year?

I think the one thing that Pentax may do that will surprise some
people is to make more cameras with/without the anti-aliasing filter
(ala Nikon D800/D800E) giving people the choice of which they want.
The Pentax Q has no anti-alias filter, which is part of the reason
that it out-performs people's expectations. I think we are seeing a
trend away from anti-alias filters being used and the moire Bogeyman
being relegated to the dust bin.

So, those are my 7, but I'll add a wildcard. I'm sure that at least
ONE of my 7 is incorrect (probably a lot more than one). So to replace
one, I think that Pentax is going to finally *announce* that they are
working on a FF camera, but that it won't ship until next year. I
think that if they are working on one then they almost have to
announce that it is coming to freeze their constituency (or at least
MORE of them) from jumping ship. But I don't think they will even show
a prototype because they will have enough "real" products to show and
they wouldn't want the FF to steal those products thunder.

Photokina : Big Surprise ?

2004-02-23 Thread cloversan

Sorry, it is late here, and trying not to sleep makes me think about crazy
things.

Remember this :

Photokina 2000 : MZ-S is announced as well as the MR -52

Photokina 2002 : Optio 330 GS is announced (crisis time)

Photokina 2004 : ??? Well, news lens DA , and, I really hope a big big news
(Digital back for 67 or 645 or baby ist D or *ist D Pro ?)

And you ???

Just notice one thing :

What the hell will be the name of next Pentax SLR/DSLR ???

^_^

MZ or ZX something is easy, change number or letter

but *ist ... use n like MZ5n or p like Z-1p 

I give my opinion : add "e"

because 

PENTAX*ist e  = pentaxiste = french way to call a crazy man like me !

Jack,
Don't ever do PT without finishing with a couple of Ibruprofen's.
You'll probably need another couple at bedtime.
They're wonderdrugs for inflamation.

Thanks for reminding me. I just picked up my K20 D this morning! IF  
they come out with something better next month I'll be despondent.

Had my left RC surgery done, then a year later, my right, then 5  
months later my right again. Total time unable to hold a camera up  
(especially for a vertical shot) was two years, 3 months. Even now the  
time aloft for a camera other than my Z10 is a minute or two.

Best of luck - don't stop the PT, even on your own, or you will  
relapse. Oh, and don't "help" when it's time top pack and move all  
your stuff. Pay or beg for help.

> Wonder IF we'll hear anything about the 60~250 at that time?

Just got the 18-250, so I'm covered (though not as well in build and  
sharpness)(theoretically).

Pretty much, although some companies don't announce things the first  
day.  If you go to that site daily, you can read that day's news.   
What you see on the site is the daily newspaper Cygnus publishes and  
distributes for free at photokina.  Today's edition, the first one,  
is made up mostly from pre-release announcements. Tomorrow's may be  
more interesting.

I'm trying to get a real life look at the camera. My dealer told me 
yesterday that the rep isn't expecting the camera much before mid 
November now.
This may mean that some other market is being used for beta testing this 
time, so it may be alright.

I doubt that I'll make it there but I'll be in town until Friday 24th.
My place is about a mile from the fairgrounds. So, if anyone wants to

I hadn't heard "nervous" applied to AF before but I know exactly what
you mean.  The K7 is good but get's like that sometimes.  I also
suspect the 645D's sensor and price point will make up for many
"peculiarities" that would be considered flaws in other cameras.

Re: Photokina observations...

2010-09-26 Thread Jeffery Smith
My overall feeling is the Pentax is stalled in R&D. There have been rumors of a 
full-sized sensor Pentax, which would be wonderful for us who have Pentax  
lenses designed for film (that would be ALL of my Pentax lenses except for the 
40mm pancake). There is little that would entice me to move from the K-x with 
43/1.9 to something else. The combination is lightweight and fast and 
comfortable in my hand.

Maybe next year.
