I received an update on the rumored Pentax mirrorless camera – it was described to me as something between the Pentax K-01 (pictured above) and the vintage K1000 SLR camera (see it here on Wikipedia). The official announcement / shipment is expected in Spring of 2017. This is all I have for now. If you have any additional information on this rumored model, you can contact me anonymously here.

Starting October 1st, the price of the Pentax K-1 camera went up by $150 at Adorama and B&H, but Amazon still sells the camera for the old price of $1,796.95. I am not sure if this price increase is permanent and what other products are impacted.

Update – there has also been a K-1 price increase in Europe: from €1,999 up to €2,099.
