    In older times their communication skills were abysmal, but more recent videos have improved outside of Japanese speaking.

    Hopefully something worth listening too. Not just a new leather strap system for GRiii ... preferably a new camera / lens announcement or film development?

    In the spirit of the upcoming monochromatic camera the new 55-550 will be monochrome only :-) :-) :-)

    Looking like Monochrome K3mkiii and an astro Kf ?

    I'll take that, smart left field thinking.

    Astro and Aurora shooting is taking off here in Australia.

    Monochrome will see Chris at Peta pixel TV go into rapturous overdrive

    Confirmed :

    us.ricoh-imaging.com/product/pentax-k-3-mark-iii-monochrome

    'Since the monochrome-specific image sensor is free of the color filters that cause a loss of light, it can take in more light. This allows the camera’s minimum ISO to be set at 200.'

    Particularly useful for when using orange or red filters, or in low light situations, otherwise an ND might be now essential to have in the bag to maintain more wide-open shooting ... though reducing the light entering, might impact a stop on AF performance?

    Also I presume the pixel-shift mode is now absent?
