    Well congratulations to AK's mum.
    As soon as she was born, she crowned her future son as the King of Photography. Such insight.
    Hope it was a happy birthday.

    A: Due to the continuous adjustment of the product lines, Pentax APS-C size compact professional camera being planned.

    Q: this micro-camera, Pentax has released K-01, Q and Q10 kind of camera. K-01 with the shape of the creative arts also attract a lot of attention. However, due to the listing price is too high, the consumers are not acceptable. Then K-01 experienced a significant price reduction, but the actual sales and not improved significantly. I would like to ask the reason why Pentax discontinued Pentax K-01 Is it because it is overpriced, sold well have to do this?

    A: On the contrary, the Pentax K-01's sell well, even in short supply.

    Q: Pentax this micro-camera layout?

    A: 2 years ago has been a reporter asked me about the things of the full-frame SLR camera. I can now say that Pentax full-frame SLR camera has been in research and development, and is a distinctive full frame.

    Q: Pentax 645D's market share in the professional field that you have received the impact of the full-size SLR from Nikon D800 high pixel?

    A: Pentax 645D is a very clear positioning machine, which is designed for the professional crowd. Nikon D800 high pixel SLR camera is not clear positioning for Pentax 645D impact is not large.

    Okay, thanks for firewood Mr. Tian Zhihe the interview. We look forward to soon be able to see more Pentax Ricoh digital camera products to meet with consumers.

    From Pentax forums...

    A:虽然上市时间短,但经销商数量的增多,对于此款机型的销量起到了正面作用。所以,销量还是不错的。
    A: Even though it's time on the market is still short, but the of increased retailers (distributors) gave a positive push to the sale of the camera. So, the sale is not bad.
