After seeing price drops on eBay for Canon D30's and D60's (and maybe soon, the D10), it might be the same case with the *istD on retail and eBay. I'm holding out for a dslr Pentax that takes all of the Pentax lens lineup without having to resort to some manipulation of camera controls to get older K mounts to be useful on it.
