Hi!
Because the camera is not supposed to be shown to the public yet,
and the Russian showing wasn't officially sanctioned by Pentax.
That means this isn't official information about a new camera,
but just details about a pre-production prototype. It might
not ever make it to production - after all, it's generally
believed that there is at least one working MZ-D being used
within Pentax. It's good for speculation, but not for news.
One thing I'd like to know is whether there were power contacts
and/or additional signal contact pins in the lens mount.
Indeed, I've been outside Russia for too long... Isn't it *extremely*
stupid of Russian representative to do such a thing as go against the
will of mother company? They could simply fire them all and hire another
bunch of people to do the job...
The puzzlement goes on.
Boris
