Rioch already officially reported that a new update on the Pentax film camera project will be released on June 18th.

I actually think the Pentax 17 half-frame film camera with 25mm f/3.5 lens will be officially announced on that date.

Several stores have already scheduled events for June 18th:

Be sure to tune in and join the conversation to get your questions answered by one of these experts.
