appreciated.

As someone else has indicated, it might be interesting to know exactly
which old lenses you think are much poorer than the DA range.
I don't know, but I've been complemented on the sharpness of the F
70-210 f4.0~5.6 and the FA 20-35 f4.0. That may change when I get a
higher resolution camera, (I'm still using *ist-D[x] bodies), but a good
lens seems to be a good lens.

My film limited lenses are swell on digital. Naturally, I should never
want even to think about mounting DA 21 on my MZ-6.

My film lenses are fine on digital, but the DA* lenses are
outstanding. I rarely use anything other than the 50-135 and 16-50
these days. They're fast and sharp, and the USM autofocus beats the
screwdriver autofocus system hands down.

Far less fringing is the most obvious advantage of the DA* lenses in
terms of image quality. Sharpness and resolution are great, but I
obviously haven't made specific and direct comparisons. But as I
noted, DA* autofocus is considerably better as well, particularly in
continuous mode
Understood.

Pentax would join Micro 4/3? But the question will there be MFT - PK
adapter with possible AF with the built in motorized SDM lenses? :)

Interesting, it also indicates that Tokina is indeed owned by Hoya,

Don't worry Cotty, the decision on weather to build the K[X]D as a
24x36mm sensor or the 645D boils down to which is most likely to make
money for the Pentax imaging division. Still plenty of possibility for
a gustatory Gatsby rendezvous.

i'm sure there will be further enhancements to the APS-C DSLR line. I think
that has been covered previously in Pentax announcements. I expect we'll see a
K30D with better autofocus and faster write speeds.

Doesn't sound like full frame is a viable option. Note the comments about the
lens line conflict. Pentax will undoubtedly remain in the APS-C fold for at
least the next few years.

Don't worry
I'm sure there will, too. But I also expect any putative K30D would
be aimed at or below the K20D price point. I'd like to know whether
we were still likely to see a K2D or whatever; a somewhat more costly
camera, perhaps, but with some of the more esoteric features such as a
faster maximum
I'd love to see a second card slot. When I shoot a wedding, my heart is in my
throat until I get home and download the files to the comuter. A second card
would be very reassuring. I dont care if they call it K20D, or K2D, but we
eventually need the next step upgrade.

Such a camera was said to be in the works in an interview with one of
the higher-ups at Pentax last year. (It's on the web somewhere but I've
lost the URL). I was afraid it
