I suspect some PDMLers may have seen this on DPreview, Pentax Rumors, or elsewhere, but I thought some might be curious to hear this.
There was a short "rumor" posted on Pentax Rumors in May, that apparently, Ricoh's rights to use the Pentax brand name will end in 2020: https://pentaxrumors.com/2019/05/20/rumors-ricohs-rights-to-use-the-pentax-brand-name-will-expire-in-2020/ 10 days later, DPreview obtained a statement from a Ricoh spokesperson who denied that: https://www.dpreview.com/news/1202805327/ricoh-denies-rumours-it-will-lose-the-right-to-use-the-pentax-brand-name Cheers, Igor -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
