Ricoh to buy Pentax

Ricoh is set to buy Pentax from Hoya for approximately 124M$ (only!), 3 years after Pentax merged with Hoya.

DCResource has a copy of the press release

Their intent is apparently for Ricoh to produce DSLR cameras to supplement their small line of compact cameras.

Update: The British Journal of Photography has a longer analysis.
