Sorry about that, I should have been more explicit; you have to choose
the second alternative in the little menu. If that does not work there
is likely to be some problem with the way your puter displays the page
and it's text.
You can also try Google translate, it is not as good as Excite, but
you should get the main idea.

Good luck, Bertil
DCWatch has an interview with Kicoreshi Kitazawa of Pentax imaging
system that offers interesting insight into the company's plans.

All I see is gibberish.
An excerpt –
- I want .."645.. to give priority to Digital more than the full size.
――In it, is there a possibility as the business 645 systems?
645 that exhibits reference in PIE2007 Digital
｢It is so. 645 digital is higher than the development of the full
size sensor adoption machine as an in-house priority level. A lot of
voices of the expectation from the film camera user of Pentax to 645
digital were heard by the echo with PIE (photo imaging Exposition)
that exhibited the last Fotokina and the reference. Moreover, there
might be coming to 645, too, if 35mm full size machine user of the
other companies also investigates a hobby and high camera thoroughly.
Also in a professional field, I got the voice that it wanted to use it
for the scenery taking a picture etc.It is necessary to answer such a
voice neatly. ｣
｢When the picture to which capture is done with a system 645 digital
is seen, the depth feel etc. understand 35mm base is the single lens
reflex system and quite different at one view. An existing seal lens
property can be made the best use of, and it is thought that there is
a user advantage, too. ｣
――Have you actually started development though Mr. Torigoe was
speaking at PIE2007,"645 digital is done without fail"?
｢Having temporarily interrupted development has come to be able to
work though did because of an in-house development resource because
the development that had to be done came back to some degree. The
amateur cameraman is often using Pentax from the studio taking a
picture usage for the scenery taking a picture though it is called an
inside seal, and I want to answer such people's expectations. ｣
――In other words, the system of 35mm base does focus to the machine
equipped with the APS-C size sensor.
｢Because it is necessary to review it from the lens lineup if 35mm
full size sensor machine is put out, it will concentrate on the APS-C
size between now. It should be thought that it thinks about operation
by the full size sensor because the blurring correction of Pentax is
in the body for the image circle it. The image circle : because there
is a very limit lens, too a part it. It only becomes difficult as a
business in being O even if the other companies and the same thing are
done to it. ｣
――If the image "The full size 35mm is a high-ranking format of APS-
C" is completed, many of APS-C size machines will be pulled below in
the price though it depends 35mm full size sensor machine's what
position on being secured in the market in the future. Does not it
have such an anxiety?
｢The image "Full size the under" will be had. Only a certain meaning
is a hoop. the falling phenomenon the price trend of the APS-C size
machine because of itHowever, the APS-C size machine has the advantage
of small even in case of being so. If the APS-C size machine can
achieve the image quality of 35mm full size average sensor in it, it
might be still good. It develops by thinking that it is not possible
to survive if we are also small, and they are not high-resolutions
besides. ｣
- It aims at the image quality of an average full size 35mm in the
next model.
――Then, is two models that put it on the market next summer to be
aimed at the image quality of 35mm full size average sensor with the
APS-C size sensor?
"Of course, it is so. "
――It is likely not to become an equal full size if there are no
some technical improvements if it says for instance by the S/N
comparison etc. of the sensor though there are various cuts even if it
is said the high-resolution. Is there a conviction that achieves the
image quality of some average full sizes?
｢It is not possible to say in detail now because there is respect
developed with the sensor manufacturer, too. Moreover, the image
quality changes greatly with the same sensor because of the latter
part processing. ｣
――Is postprocessing a story of the signal conditioning and the
quality until the signal from the sensor is converted in A/D?Or, is it
a story of NR in the digital region?
｢It is the both. The noise measures in the route from the sensor to
the A/D converter are important as it and the same, etc. though the
noise measures can be given even by a digital signal conditioning. How
to see the image is considerably different by the way of the noise
processing. The scenery taking a picture is especially considered for
us, and the response in green reproducibility and a high region is
anxiously and is developed. ｣
――Is it a sensor manufacturer and is the joint development the next
generation version of the sensor made of Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.
adopted for K20D?
｢We are stances of choosing a best sensor at that time. For instance,
K-m is 10 million pixels CCD made by Sony the same as K200D. There is
a technical prospect of becoming an average full size by the technical
improvement with which sensor manufacturer though it is not possible
to say. ｣
