Well, Pentax isn't a manufacturer any more - it's just a brand owned by

It's much the same as Panasonic putting Lumix on its cameras.
OK, but I understood that Pentax were keeping the brand name on the DSLRs.
Not having a K5 of any model, I'm fairly sure even the very last ones are
Pentax branded all over, and as I said, the first K3's (pre-release models)
were also branded Pentax all over. Someone decided that the Ricoh brand name
would now appear on the DSLRs as well. Just an observation.
It's possible that someone at Ricoh has decided that dual branding
might not be a good idea after all. 'Ricoh' doesn't appear on the
rear of the latest models (K-S1, Q-S1 and 645Z) - Just 'Pentax' on the
front.
