Ricoh has recently confirmed its commitment to the revival of film photography with the development of a new Pentax compact film camera. This announcement comes as part of Ricoh’s Film Camera Project, which aims to bring new Pentax film cameras to the market. The project has generated excitement among the film camera community, as film photography continues to experience a resurgence in popularity.
Pentax’s long-standing association with film cameras, including iconic models like the K1000, makes it a natural fit for the brand to focus on film rather than the stagnant DSLR market. The decision to venture into film aligns with the growing demand for analog photography and the rising prices of film and film cameras.
