<grins> All calm here. You are quite correct - my Pentax cameras would still work as well as before the possible abandonment, and I would still use them. However, I would miss the PDML if it went away!

Best regards,

What if Pentax did an abandonment thing, in the same way Olympus did,
would you throw away all your old screwmounts, all the early and late
K-mounts, and say the hell with them all?
Maybe you would , but *I* wouldn't. There is so much Pentax 35mm gear
out there, it will take me the rest of my lifetime and then some, to
explore and buy/trade, and use all of it I can!
They haven't given up on ME, per se.
If anything, and that's not totally cast in concrete yet, they are
deciding to not make 35mm film cameras for a while.
Big deal. Everybody gets so UPSET!

Calm down folks.
