@thisistanaka The K-70 and the KF are essentially the same camera. Once a firmware update has been written for the KF, it's very easy to create a version for the K-70.

@thisistanaka Splendid car. Model year is 1964: no split-type rear window (so not 1963), scoop indentations on hood and nonfunctional horizontal "speedlines" on the front fenders (1965-1966: smoothed-out hood and trio of working vertical exhaust vents in the front fenders).

@Disparafilmblog @RolleiFans @analog_cafe Besides, I'm not so sure DW Photo manufacture cameras anymore. They seem to be mainly servicing and repairing Rolleiflex cameras.

[Mistral75 @Mistral752]

@Disparafilmblog @RolleiFans @analog_cafe DW Photo GmbH only had the right to use the inventory of 'Rolleiflex' nameplates they bought from the liquidator of DHW Fototechnik GmbH. Beyond that, the subsequent Hy6 mod2 cameras had to carry a different name.

@RolleiFans @analog_cafe As you have learned, the Rollei and Rolleiflex trademarks belong to Rollei GmbH & Co KG. They purchased the rights to them in early 2010.
The Rolleiflex name is used (under licence...) by MiNT for one of their instant cameras:

@thisistanaka HD Pentax-D FA 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 ED PLM WR SR with 5-axis synchronised image stabilisation (optical stabilisation and 5-axis sensor stabilisation working in tandem)?
Already available at Olympus / OM System, this would be a first for an SLR.

@HillaryGrigonis @OfficialRollei It seems this 'Rolleiflex' account is a fake:

@camerainsider The 17-28mm f/2.8 (a 'Nikonized' Tamron) was announced today. The 12-28mm DX was not -it simply gained a PZ denomination in the roadmap published today.

[Mistral75 @Mistral752]

@nokishita_c Similarly, the 'S-Line 800mm' might be a 800mm f/6.3 PF.

PF (Phase Fresnel) lenses because both of them are much shorter than the 400mm f/2.8 and the 600mm f/4 respectively.

Max. aperture guessed from the front diameter of the silhouettes.

[Mistral75 @Mistral752]

@nokishita_c There are two 400mm lenses on the roadmap and on the picture I posted previously:

1. The Nikkor Z 400mm f/2.8 TC VR S, the development of which was announced today.

2. The 'S-Line 400mm', the silhouette of which (much shorter and also thinner) suggests it's a 400mm f/4.5 PF.
