One has to wonder what possessed Pentax to even make those turkeys. How
many pennies did they save in manufacturing costs by leaving out the parts
that would allow the "m" series lenses to work?
Pentax has the best track record in the industry (I think) for maintaining
compatibility over time, and why did they
break the mold?
I was wondering if we were at the end of the road with the transition
to digital photography now well underway, and was greatly relieved
to see the reports of the digital body in a 35mm frame shown by Pentax
at Photokina which will accept the pentax family of optics. I just hope they weren't
serious about the $7,000
price that was mentioned.
