It seemed like the Pentax Film Project was hanging in the balance, following lead designer, Takeo ‘TKO’ Suzuki’s, surprising departure back in March, and inaccurate reports that the project had been paused. But whatever the situation at Ricoh HQ, news regarding the project’s status has been thin on the ground. That’s why a rumor post regarding a new Pentax film camera on Pentax & Ricoh Rumors is so enticing. And with analog fans left largely in the dark, surely any news is good news, even camera rumors.
However, the rumors website has rightly questioned the wobbly press release’s authenticity, given that it’s dated November 18 (long gone). I personally don’t think the writing style quite feels like a press release, either, although it could be translated, which could explain this.
