I asked about a higher-end 35mm model and did not get an encouraging response; either the person I spoke with was uninformed, or there won't be a pro body announced at PMA. Pentax seems to be focused on volume, not profit margin, in this space. The representative DID however point out that they'd need to 'digitize' their medium format product line soon; that as-is it was getting 'long in the tooth' ============================== Brian Dipert Technical Editor: Mass Storage, Memory, Multimedia, PC Core Logic and Peripherals, and Programmable Logic EDN Magazine: http://www.edn.com 5000 V Street Sacramento, CA 95817 (916) 454-5242 (voice), (617) 558-4470 (fax) mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit me at http://www.bdipert.com
