When the D30 Canon came out lots of photographers got one. A year or so later came the D60 and the D30 owners began unloading their digitals so the prices came down. The D60 was superceded by the 10D. D60 prices are slowly coming down. It may be awhile before Pentax comes out with a newer digital slr (with K/M compatibility?). I can see some current *ist D owners trying to unload their "obsolete" cameras for the new one.
