Interesting. It seems Pentax can't really impress a substantial percentage of high-end "35mm camera" buyers. I wonder what Pentax will be doing to try to replace the lost sales of professional the MF cameras (6x45, 6x7) - in other words to get (back) in to the pro market.

I had a chat with the folks at the Pentax booth today at CES. What I was told is that there are less than 1000 bodies left in factory inventory, and when they're gone there'll be no more made; the *istDS will carry the torch going forward (at least until next-generation products are out). The guy I talked to also wasn't aware of any future *istD firmware updates under development ============================== Brian Dipert Technical Editor: Mass Storage, Memory, Multimedia, PC Core Logic and Peripherals, and Programmable Logic EDN Magazine: http://www.edn.com 5000 V Street Sacramento, CA 95817 (916) 454-5242 (voice), (617) 558-4470 (fax) mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit me at http://www.bdipert.com
