Well not much rumours for Pentax. There is nothing about the K-line, all the
rumours going around are focusing on the mirrorless systems of Pentax. One
being APS-C (I do believe the NC-1 pictures floating around is the APS-C or
4/3 one) and one being a small sensor one (some says it's called Pentax Q)
and one of them is rumoured to be based on the Auto 110 system (I bet that's
the small sensor one)
The companies in focus for rumours are:
Sony - Nex C3, A35, 30mm macro lens and a new flash for the Nex are
announced today, but there is more to come. A77, Nex 7 and one more camera
will be announced soon, most likely the 7th of July (7/7 for the A77...
cheeky :D)
Panasonic - G3 is out and there is a rumoured GF3 with ultra small body, few
pictures already floating the net so it's just matter of days to get
announced
Olympus - EPL3 and one real small camera to be announced soon
Samsung - They are the main thread in the rumor mill. NX20, NX200 and 85
f1.4 will be announced soon. One the cameras might be a Leica M9 / Fuji X100
like and there is a rumoured square sensor mirrorless Medium Format like
camera-box :)
Nikon - not much, mirrorless will have smaller than 4/3 sensor (2.5-2.8x
crop factor)
Canon - Who cares? :)
Holga - Open Source mirrorless camera project. Sounds interesting and a good
idea.

Subject: Where are the rumors?
Isn't it about time for the rumors about the K5 replacement to start
appearing? The K10 had a production run of 2 years but the K20 and K7
only ran for 1 year before being replaced. On that record the K3 (?)
should be appearing soon - or at least start being talked about.
I keep looking at the K5's low light performance (the only thing I'm
not happy with in the K7). And then I think the next model should be
even better, but I hate waiting.
So where are the rumors about the next camera. What are the must have
features that will sell it? Or are we reaching the point where
advancement is slowing simply because technology can't keep up?
