No, because a DSLR and digi P&S are too far apart in price. A maker needs a full line (price) so that a sales person can say, "You can start with this Pentax (P&S) at the low end, or move up to this Pentax (DSLR) at the high end". You don't want them to say start with Pentax and move to Olympus, do you. That's how Pentax got wacked with their film SLRs.

P&S


So.. in light of this, would this not be a canibalizing effect to have
potential Optio/current Optio buyers/users move onto the *ist D ?

We'll have to wait and see won't we..
