Still from PMA, though.
Here is the most ridiculous quote:
"I think that if people were looking for an upgrade from their K20D,
perhaps the digital 645 is going to be the path that Pentax and Hoya
are expecting you to take."
Hmmm... If by upgrade you mean replace all my lenses with lenses in
a new mount and not having the same range of lens choices in the
"upgraded" camera, I guess it's an upgrade path...
I think we can tie the recently discussed patent for a dual lens mount
(?) with the statement:
"Even though Pentax has partnered with Samsung for DSLR cameras in the
past, Sendai says they are not involved with the Samsung NX series
unveiled at PMA (the NX features a yet unidentified interchangeable
lens system paired with a small body that uses a digital viewfinder
instead of a mirror for a more compact size). So it looks unlikely
that the NX series will be using a variation of the K-mount lens
system, like on the Samsung GX models."
