OK, the chap I spoke to said (I quizzed him and he sort of said yes or no, never went into details, like trying to get blood out of a stone!): 1. It was an entry-to-mid level camera 2. That it shared a chassis with the DSLR 3. It accepts legacy K-mount lenses He refused to comment on pricing and claimed no knowledge whatsover of anything further away than the digital SLR which was 'coming soon'. So completely blank on a flagship film SLR, a full-frame DSLR, or new P67. This makes them sound pretty horrid, but they were happy to talk at great length and let you prod anything they had on the stand (except the Optio S which was in a case. They would however take advance orders for it). Chris
