Who's going to want to invest in a bunch of Pentax-D lenses given the risk that Pentax will make one DSLR only and then drop out of the market (the way Olympus did with autofocus SLRs)?They will if there's a conforming open or "de facto" standard that emerges. e.g. Pentax makes lenses for Sony video cameras.
It'll be interesting to see if Pentax adopts the four-thirds DSLR system (funny I always want to say "three fourths"!). But if they do, all my K-mount lenses will stay in semi-retirement.
