I've been thinking about how Ricoh does things like their steadfast devotion to the Pentaprism, coming out with a monochrome sensor, most of their software updates are for instagram style filters on JPEGs, and removing any usefulness from the RGB histogram. Ricoh marketing's target demographic is people who want to take photos with a cellphone, but who want to cosplay what they think are real photographers.
This goes all the way back to the days of Pentax still ruling themselves when the K-7 shortly after its introduction would have needed a few urgent updates and corrections and all Pentax came up with were improved water colour and wax crayon filters. Much of their market research must be done in some kind of kindergarden. Ralf -- Ralf R.
