Subject: Pentax to Release Mirrorless Camera? The Answer Might Be YES
From K-rumors:
"According to Citigroup Global Markets Japan Inc Hoya plans to release
a mirrorless camera that is “distinct” from other mirrorless cameras.
Citigroup doesn’t give any further detail but this is an official
document were they analyzed the Business conditions from Hoya."

Due to my ongoing love affair with the Samsung NX10, I really hope
this rumour ends up being real. I REALLY want a Pentax MILC.
My opinion: A Samsung NX10 with Pentax's image processing and menu
system/features, plus weather-sealing, and a line of small WR primes
would be very successful. The potential of an APS-C sensor in a small
body like the NX10 with a bunch of pancake primes is enormous.
I know some of you will disagree, and I ask you to please vent your
anger in this thread :-)
MILC looks a lot like MILF, which is a great acronym.
As long as they don't drop real viewfinders I couldn't care less. The world
is moving towards electronic viewfinders, and if I could get a little camera
like that Panasonic thing that I had with me in Chicago with a compact lens
set, I'd probably buy into it, if for no other reason than I like shiny
things.
