Pentax seem to be running a teaser campaign for the new film camera. Turn the
sound on to hear them plugging the manual film winding experience. To me it
sounds like a wheel/dial rather than a crank for winding on.

Just sayin.
More clarity from you when you put your thoughts to words goes a long way
to avoiding misunderstanding.
As for the Corvette, they are all useless, depending on one's POV.
As an aside, on the 2022 Vette, it's 11 hours of book time to change th
I think a new, fixed-lens film camera is the sort of thing a lot of my students
would go for. They'd never dream of entering the murky world of second-hand,

I think that the serape of snark is large enough to cover more than one person

Perhaps, if one were given to exaggeration and fuzzy thinking.
Yes, the camera has some value, but I t
One could say the same thing about someone's split window Corvette that

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.

there will be some market for it. but perhaps not enough to make it profitable
