Hi! I really doubt that Pentax __should__ create their own CCD or other kind of sensor. I mean why? What would be the reason for doing so? They could use any of the existing technologies. Yes, this would mean some fees (royalties) and probably some price impact on consumer. But to create one's own CCD one has to be a chip design company. Pentax however is much more optical company (Asahi Optical, remember?)... I'd rather they create some interesting lenses and write some excellent firmware for their DSLR.
