The Official Announcement from Pentax/Ricoh says
Pixel Shift Resolution for capturing still life subjects”. SR via sensor shift
was cool when first introduced but it had limitations. With every generation of
camera it keeps getting better. And then we had sensor shift coupled with GPS
etc to
I agree with Stan regarding the whole first generation and then make
it better thing. That's just how tech works.
Not so sure about the next few years part though. There could be a
whole new paradigm shift coming. Sony is working on Active Pixel
Color Sampling sensors.

Actually I'm hoping for a K-5 III, because really every time the control
layout changes it takes months to get used to, I'm still having trouble
with the exposure compensation button and green button having been
switched, and the OK button functions being changed and the FN button

The K-5 IIs was a K-5 II without the AA filter. Neither the K-3 nor
K-3 II has an AA filter, so there's no need for a K-3 IIs.

Thanks for the answers so far. I am really curious to see how this
works (technically and results-wise). From a marketing standpoint it
sure gets Pentax attention for offering something (on top of an
already acclaimed camera) that Nikon and Canon don't have and can't
replicate since they don't

I'm a bit wary of electronic shutters, and yes this will complicate
flash sync for fill flash, depending on the duration of the flash and
necessary exposure time. I'd be surprised if flash is supported for the
pixel shift exposures, too much room for error and customer complaints.

Well no, the focal plane shutter is mechanical, not electronic. (Its
timing may be /controlled/ electronically but it itself is
mechanical.)

Exactly Eric, and that's what the Ricoh specs for the K-3 II say is
used for the Pixel Shift Resolution.

I believe that means the focal plane shutter opens once, and stays open,
for all four of the pixel-shifted exposures. The lens diaphragm should
likewise stop down appropriately, and stay constant during the four
pixel-shifted exposures.
