Don't feel too bad. We all do things we later regret. Just don't do it again.... > On 10/29/2011 1:39 PM, P. J. Alling wrote: > > No, I haven't heard any.

I'd guess that the respective camera divisions of Ricoh and Pentax are in the process of rationalising their product lines and that may be delaying the Pentax large sensor mirrorless. Ricoh undoubtedly wants to develop its GXR further and wouldn't want any Pentax offering to draw sales away. I'm hoping that the large sensor Pentax mirrorless system comes in at a price point similar to the K-r, then I might be able to put my old Konica Hexanon lenses to good use occasionally.
