I can't find how Pentax named their line... Pentax. When was it first used?
It seems to me to be an abbrev. of Pentaprism Contax, the famous Carl Zeiss
pentaprism camera (which gave name to Pentacon made by Carl Zeiss Jena
affiliated company, which invented the M42 mount - PENTAprism CONtax). So
did Pentax just "steal" Pentacon's name idea, or is there some other word
behind it? Just curious, sorry ;)
