Several readers contacted me with questions about a French website that reported a few weeks ago that Ricoh is planning to stop the production of Pentax cameras in 2018. As far as I know this information is 100% wrong or at least not backed by any reliable source. I will not mention the name of the website because I do not encourage such behavior (and there are a lot of rumor websites today that report nothing but made-up stories for a few extra clicks).
