Last month, gadget website Ubergizmo<\/a> reported that Pentax is expected to debut a new full-frame DSLR – based on comments apparently made by Tomoyoshi Shibata, Pentax’s managing director and general manager of Pentax Ricoh China, in an interview with pcpop.com<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The article adds that the camera \u2018will apparently be different from other full-frame DSLR cameras’.<\/p>\n

However, Pentax Ricoh Imaging UK’s product co-co-ordinator Stephen Sanderson today told Amateur Photographer<\/em> (AP) that the firm does not plan to issue any response to the report.<\/p>\n

Separately, in March, Pentax appeared to hint<\/a> that it may launch a full-frame DSLR later this year.<\/p>\n

The suggestion emerged in a tweet purportedly posted by Pentax Australia, in response to a question posed by Hong Kong-based Pentax user Sam Wong.<\/p>\n

In his tweet, Wong had asked: \u2018A Pentax FF DSLR is coming??’<\/p>\n

Pentax Australia replied: \u2018This very well might be the year! Hold onto those lenses.’<\/p>\n

In an interview with AP last year, Pentax underlined the importance of a full DSLR range but remained tight-lipped when asked whether we can expect a full-frame camera.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
