Probably we'll get a Limited APS-C camera for Limited lenses.

Ricoh seems to be reaching for a smaller public than even the old Pentax
did.

A camera nowadays has so many features and no doubt many customers use
ony a part of them. As an example I've never used the video of my DSLR's.
But no way I would buy now a camera with fixed screen, because with the
K-1  I'm tilting the screen in perhaps a quart  of my shots in nature.
We have to wait and see what improvements the new APS-C will bring
besides the brighter OVF,  but I wonder about the appreciation of the
fixed screen when introduced on the market.
Perhaps Ricoh/Pentax is planning to follow the Leica route of going
against the main stream for a small public.

Well, as expected, the die is cast: the new flagship will have a
fixed LCD screen.
Wrong decisions by R/P....
I have a tilt-up screen on my 645Z which I *never* use. I only ever
shoot using the OVF so the LCD remains flat against the body.

Ironically, I am considering substituting a (tilting LCD) K-1 for my
(non-tilting) K-3 as my backup/alternate body, and I would treat that
tiltable K-1 LCD the same way: stuck resolutely to the back. Can't use
an LCD viewscreen for shooting; don't need an LCD viewscreen for
shooting.

And really, since Ricoh/Pentax has decided to stick with the OVF and
forgo mirrorless designs, favouring the OVF is a reasonable way to go.
