My guess is it's an illustration, rather than a photograph, but whether
it looks real or not, it's still just a rumor as of this morning.

I'm not going to believe anything until I see it from Ricoh. There've
been too many rumors for far too long, and I'm done getting my hopes
up.

Besides, the font of the K-3 brand doesn't look right, and I doubt
they'd put a superzoom lens on a high-end body for promotional photos.
I'm betting it's fake.

A babblefish translation of a portion of the source page:

Unless you see the image in the k-3 body differ with some k-5 II in fine 
detail, but overall the k-5 II very similar is like. That unlike k-5 II 
character of the shape of pentaprism, AF auxiliary light lamp area, shape, 
shape of lens detachable button, SR change to Golden, and then, in the shape of 
the part under the logo of "k-3' (English)

I'm not seeing a whole lot of reason why the K3 should "look different",

A grain of salt might be necessary here...

Other than the "K-3"that looks EXACTLY like my K-5II. You would think
there would be SOMETHING different about it. (The K-5II also sold in
kits with that lens, the 18-135mm). I would bet that image is just
"re-purposed" to put it nicely.

I do believe the K-3 will be announced in October, but beyond that I
have no idea what to expect from it.

I'm not going to believe anything until I see it from Ricoh. There've
been too many rumors for far too long, and I'm done getting my hopes
up.

Besides, the font of the K-3 brand doesn't look right, and I doubt
they'd put a superzoom lens on a high-end body for promotional photos.
I'm betting it's fake.
