After months of hype and an unexpected delay, Ricoh has finally announced the Pentax K-3 Mark III DSLR. The flagship camera features an optical viewfinder, a ruggedized body, an AI-assisted subject recognition technology, and a 25.73-megapixel BSI sensor with ISO sensitivity up to 1,600,000.
Pentax has announced that due to a parts shortage, the K3 Mark III DSLR that was scheduled to be announced at Japan's CP+ show on February 25 has been delayed indefinitely.
It's a bit rare to get any concrete information out of FCC filings for any product far ahead of its release, so finding photos of the upcoming Pentax K-3 Mark III without its magnesium alloy shell is definitely unusual.
Ricoh has released a new video all about the upcoming Pentax flagship APS-C DSLR that has been slowly revealed over the past year. The camera will be called the Pentax K-3 Mark III (imagine that), and we are finally getting some information about specs and price point beyond just the fact that it has a nice optical viewfinder.
When Ricoh announced the new "Brand Vision" for Pentax, they promised to share more details about upcoming products very soon. Earlier today, they delivered in a follow-up video showing off the upcoming Pentax APS-C flagship DSLR.
As promised back in March, Tokina has just the ATX-i 11-20mm f/2.8 CF: an ultra-wide angle zoom lens for crop-sensor DSLRs from Nikon and Canon. With a fixed f/2.8 aperture and affordable price tag, it should prove to be a very popular option for APS-C users.
Ricoh released a 40-minute video presentation last night on YouTube, detailing its plans for several Pentax products that are "in-development." The video was released in lieu of a CP+ 2020 presentation, and shared details about the upcoming APS-C DSLR, one previously-announced 85mm lens, and two brand new lenses we hadn't heard about before.
