We all had that big question how the Ricoh and Pentax partnership will affect their so different mirrorless system. According to one of our new sources: “Ricoh gave green light to Pentax to go and make stuff. “
And that K-3 “FF compact camera is definitely coming“. The source didn’t say if that would be a DSLR or a Mirrorless camera.

There’s no way the k3 FF is going to be a mirrorless.
…and there is no way either the K-3 will be full frame.
Successor to K-5, K-3 has an APS-C sensor and will be launched at Photokina or immediately before Photokina.
The full frame Pentax, if any, will be launched in H1 2013 at the earliest and won’t be named K-3.
FF from Pentax? DREAM!!!
Don’t think it’s gonna be a DSLR if they say it’s gonna be a FF compact…
FF Mirrorless has a bright future. Go ahead and kill Leica-Gucci.
A mirrorless FF retro style Pentax camera that can use all the legasy Pentax smc lenses would be great. This will be the first of the kind!!!
If i were Pentax decision maker, I’ll leave the idea of mirrorless FF and build a mirrorless MF. Studio photography doesn’t really need DSLR feature.
