#3 - Continuation...Something new is coming and it's getting closer. Pentax K-7 and K-5 get it first just because that's what we use every day.



All the speculations thus far are not what we have developed at this time. We can hardly wait to tell you all about it, but we need the final product in our hands first. Some will like it and some won't.

You know, some people are disappointed when any new camera or accessory is announced if it's not a game changer, and there cannot be game changers every time.

I think our item will be of particular interest for travel photographers, wildlife photographers, landscape photographers but can be useful for all kind of photography. Actually, studio photographers may not have much of a need for it.

We are supposed to get our finished demo product Monday. If all works as intended, we should be able to release the product shortly thereafter.

Could it be a set of custom bellows made by Aletta Photographic (i.e. you)?

No custom Bellows for Digital Cameras. :)

HENRY,

I am not much of a marketer. This thing took off by itself. I was at the Fabrication shop today and I do think it will be ready by Monday. Parts of it is made of Aircraft aluminium and machined on a 3D CNC Machine. What a beauty.

I suggest it may be a some type of body armor, made from rubber, and specific, because the body-shapes are different. So, the k-7 and k-5 are equivalent in therms of body design; however k-r are different. Also all Canon, Nikon, Sony, etc.

More over, this is not software, haven't glass elements, useful for travel, sport and wildlife shooting, but in studio, it's non-sense.

Just a little prediction... :)

@Luc What is not true? I didn't say anything! Well, that is why Yvon suggest deleting my commentary. I don't know why, it was not offensive at all. It was a critical review of his marketing campaign.

@Hominido Lopez: I find it interesting that you are in disagreement with Yvons marketing techniques, yet you are one of his top commentators..... Maybe his marketing techniques aren't so bad afterall.

Luc, Hominido and Marisa, this site not being a "forum" I tend to minimize the disagrements between commenters. I know how comments can get out of hand, and I like my readers too much to let them get into any arguments. Forums are a good place for that.

Agreed. We are all here for the same reason. :)

It is OK. I don't want to start a flame war, it wasn't the intention of my first post (and I think its content hardly could start one).
