If there is full follow through on this, they will be releasing four film
cameras to go after a resurgent market that is being underserved.

I think the point of it, according to what I read, is that the useless toy is a
test-bed on which Ricoh will develop a film SLR.

Very much so.
Then again, as long as it brings money into Pentax' coffers it's just as
fine with me as pink, neon-yellow or textmarker-green DSLRs. No-one
forces us to buy them.

From my days as a components engineer at an electronics firm, I would be very

Could this be the ‘workshop-like’ approach to production that they
announced in January of last year?

One of the parks I used to frequent trying to photograph birds had a
children's playground I had to walk past on my way down to the lakes.
If I tried to photograph anything along the path I'd sometimes get
"concerned parents" wanting to know what I was up to and was I
photographing their kids?
Under Dutch/EU privacy legislation the approval of parents is required
before taking pictures of kids at school (or elsewhere).

I guess we’re more fortunate in the UK. My whole ethos is about communicating

without it people do feel threatened. Difficult with cityscape photography I
