(in Traditional Chinese)

So, as clearly seen in the above, the path of brand naming goes down like that: Pentax -> Pentax Ricoh -> Ricoh Pentax -> What's NEXT?? :-o
I bet most primary pupils will guess the answer should be RICOH Only, which is much sensible enough. Yes, that's my bet too! The trend is really too obvious but again, it is SO SAD! Not even to mention it is rather disgusting afterall! >:-[

"The name "Pentax" was originally a registered trademark of the East German VEB Zeiss Ikon (from "Pentaprism" and "Contax") but, as all Germans patents were annulled with the country's defeat, the name "Pentax" was taken by the Asahi Optical company in 1957." (Wikipedia)
So you must to decide if you love gear and being "pentaxians" or photography and teeing photos with amazing cameras like the new K-3.

Be it any Ricoh's corporate move, any Pentax branded product, some other company's product or service — there is an inevitable and forced conclusion that it is all bad news anyway and that Pentax is doomed now forever.
