Ricoh Employs Pentax SR Technology in GXR Module (New Patent)



See: http://egami.blog.so-net.ne.jp/2011-11-25

(in Japanese, Excite English Translation Here)

It is a sensor shift image stabilisation technology that is almost identical to the current Pentax SR one afterall, I believe. So, after the Pentax requisition, Ricoh has promptly absorbed and adopted the useful intellectual property of Pentax and improvement to the existing product line has been realised. Again, it is really a good news, especially and hopefully if this new SR-ed GXR module is in K-mount! Why Not? :-D

Indeed, people at Ricoh were skilful enough to absorb Pentax's IP so promptly that they incorporated it in a request for patent filed on May 6, 2010, seventeen months before they took Pentax over :)

So, they decided to buy Pentax so as to avoid any possible IP infringement! ;-)
