Too bad.
I was really looking forward to a feature rich medium format camera to use with all of those great lenses.
I’m soooo sorry Pentax gave up.
But if anyone from Pentax is reading this, why not just send those left-over sample cameras which you have no need for to me rather than throwing them out?
Maybe I put them to use!

Maybe Samsung will pick up where Pentax left off!

Pretty dumb, dumb and even dumber move by Pentax. I’m so sorry to see such a great camera be side-lined. I would have gladly payed for this camera, as I do have a film version of it. I’m paying rental fees for other brands, which by now I could have . . . I just don’t know what to say! Big, Big disappointment Pentax . . .
